Product Description
Clear and Blue Drinking Glasses, Cobalt Kiss inch (Set of 6): Kitchen & Dining. I was 15 years old when I began blowing glass. NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, offers thousands of limited edition and one-of-a-kind gifts, jewelry, and home decor treasures handmade by master artists and artisans throughout the world. The brilliant cobalt blue line adorning the rim is a perfect excuse for inviting old and new friends. Classic and tasteful, this set of six glasses comes from the workshop of Javier and Efren. They exemplify the art of blown glass. Because each item is individually handmade, glasses may vary slightly in height (up to 1 8 in or 3.2 mm). Artisan Info: The artistry of Javier and Efren has been featured in periodicals ranging from Sunset magazine to the Miami Herald. Since the 1990s, Javier Gutierrez and Efren Canteras have worked together to preserve Mexico's blown glass artistry. This type of work is a beautiful craft. I love blown glass because of the pure imagination poured into every piece created, confides Efren. Even though the art of blowing glass originally came to Mexico from Spain, and it is practiced all over the world, Mexico's blown glass artistry is unique, says Javier enthusiastically. Now I have the opportunity to teach the art of blowing hot glass to other young artisans.
