The Opale tumbler set features a centuries-old glassmaking technique in which white opaline glass flakes are melted onto a transparent crystal base, creating a snowy surface with varying degrees of transparency when light passes through. Each tumbler is mouth-blown and hand finished, resulting in subtle individual characteristics across the pair. The opaline white finish shifts in appearance depending on the light, lending the glass a distinctive, layered quality.
Taken from Stories of Italy's 'Opale' collection, this set of two tumblers incorporates a technique that dates back to the 16th century. In melting white opaline glass flakes onto a transparent crystal base, a snowy surface is created where varying degrees of transparency are revealed when crossed by light. Mouth-blown and hand finished, each tumbler is unique and in possession of its own characteristics.
