In keeping with the iconic, organic-brutalist aesthetic of this period, each piece is a handcrafted original. The manufacturing process defines their sculptural character: a textured band of molten glass with a geometric line relief was bent by hand into a cuff, so that the ends overlap flat and seamlessly.

The heavy, high-quality clear glass refracts light in a captivating way, reminiscent of the texture of natural frost and crushed ice. A timeless addition to any sophisticated mid-century table setting, festive occasions, or a curated design collection.
