Chunky Recycled Tumbler - Plum
This chunky glass tumbler is handmade from recycled glass in Mexico - the country's colourful culture of which is captured in its beautiful plum colour.
It measures around 12-13cm x 7cm, but due to the handmade nature of the product, each one can vary in size. Whilst we will do our best to choose the most similar sized glasses for your order, we do only have what has been sent to us so please be aware that there might be quite a range of sizes in our delivery!
Why we love it
- Traditionally mouth blown and hand-shaped by eye so each piece is unique - minor imperfections are part of its enduring charm!
- Produced at a family run workshop in Oxaca, South Mexico
- Comes wrapped in real Mexican newspaper!
Sold singly. Please note: Milagros glassware is handmade and not uniform. Minor imperfections are an inherent part of the handmade process.
Approximate size around Approximately 13cm tall x 7cm diameter at the rim. However, due to the handmade nature of the product, sizes can vary considerably from glass to glass.
Handmade at a family-run workshop in Oaxaca, South Mexico. The glass is melted down and then mouth blown, and the colour, if used, is added during this process. Each piece is shaped by hand and eye using techniques that date back thousands of years - and the fact that every one is a slightly different size and shape is part of its enduring charm! The trace of the maker is captured as the glass solidifies – small ripples and optical distortions are an integral part of the glassware - not for those who favour the symmetry of the production line!
Handwash recommended. Handmade glass can never be 'dishwasher proof' however it is usually pretty resistant to being put through a dishwasher. Dishwashers also tend to dull the glass over time.
Milagros has been working with some of its main suppliers for over twenty years. It conducts its business in a mutually beneficial way to give its makers a reasonable income, and to provide its customers with unique, handmade products at a fair price.
