Description
This tumbler is mouthblown in clear glass, its walls flecked all over with tiny air bubbles and decorated by hand with small raised hearts dotted around the side. It holds 370ml, which makes it a generous everyday glass rather than a dainty juice glass, with room for a long glass of water, a soft drink over ice or a mixed drink. It stands 10cm tall and 9cm across, a low, straight-sided shape with a solid base, and at 0.41KG it has a reassuring weight in the hand.
We think of it first as a Christmas glass. The hearts bring a warm, festive note to the table at Christmas dinner, at a drinks party with friends or with a glass of something sparkling on Christmas Eve, without leaning on the usual seasonal motifs. It is just as at home through the rest of winter, for juice at breakfast or water on the bedside table, and the hearts make it an easy gift for anyone who loves a cosy, well-dressed table. Its compact size suits a tumbler serve rather than a stemmed one, and it tucks neatly onto a crowded table or a drinks trolley.
Mouthblown glass is shaped by breath and hand, so small differences in the bubbles, the placing of the hearts and the line of the rim are part of each piece rather than flaws. The decoration is handmade, and the whole tumbler is glass through and through. It goes in the dishwasher, which makes it practical for everyday use as well as for the big occasions, but it is not for the microwave or the oven. On the table, set one at each place beside plain white plates and a few sprigs of pine; the clear glass lets the drink inside show through, and the hearts catch the light from candles nearby.

Frequently Asked
What is the tumbler made of?
It is made entirely of glass. The glass is mouthblown, and the small hearts are added by hand, so each tumbler varies slightly.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
Yes, it goes in the dishwasher. It is not suitable for the microwave or the oven, so keep it out of both.
How much does it hold?
It holds 370ml, a generous tumbler size that suits water, juice, soft drinks or a mixed drink with ice.
How big is it?
It is 10cm tall and 9cm across, a low, straight-sided tumbler with a solid base that weighs 0.41KG.
Are the bubbles in the glass a flaw?
No. The tiny air bubbles run all through the glass as part of its look, and because it is mouthblown no two tumblers are exactly alike.
What is included?
You receive the glass tumbler itself. The styling props shown are not included, so the pine and the decorations are not part of it.
