Handmade Eco Friendly Set of Six Handmade Margarita Glasses, 'Cobalt Contrasts' (Mexico)

This handmade creation is offered in partnership with NOVICA, in association with National Geographic.

Poised graciously on transparent stems, margarita glasses are crowned with a band of deep cobalt blue. The set of six is part of the eco-friendly NOVICA Handblown Collection. In a marvelous melding of Mexican hospitality and Mexican artistry, they stand on a deep blue base.

Because each piece is handmade, shape and size can vary slightly and tiny bubbles may appear within the glass. This exemplifies the hand-blown technique, making every piece a unique example of blown glass craftsmanship.

Story Behind the Art:
Since the 1990s, Javier and Efren have worked together to preserve Mexico's blown glass artistry. 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. Working as a team, Javier specializes in the design of the pieces, and Efren transforms the designs into a reality. The artisan holds molten glass with one end of a steel pipe and blows through the other end. The glass is shaped by hand before it cools.

The handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
