The Story Behind the Art
Since the 1990s, Javier Gutirrez 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.

I read the other reviews to help in my decision. This looks great online & even better when you get it. I was looking for a large volume pitcher instead of the little acrylic ones. This is magnificent!! I love blue and this is so nice. After the pitcher came, I was so pleased, I bought the matching glasses. They were good too. What a bargain for the workmanship & quality. I would buy anything this company makes.
I purchased this pitcher and matching glasses to give as wedding and shower gifts to a young bride in our family. They are so beautiful, it's going to be hard for me to give them away because I want to keep them for myself! I'm sure they will be well received because they are very lovely and probably something a newly wed couple wouldn't splurge on for themselves. The glass is very bright and clear and heavy, and feels good to the touch. They will be fun to use, and I'm sure will receive lots of compliments because of how unique they are in appearance. The spiral glass is very pretty with a true cobalt blue. Yes, there are a few bubbles, but they do not detract from the overall beauty of the glass. They were packed really well, but they were slow in arriving. I waited longer than expected, but they were worth the wait.

This is a beautiful piece, larger than I thought that it would be. I gave this as a gift to my niece and she loved it. I had a hard time giving it away.
