These hand-blown glass goblets are a bouquet of flowers to brighten your table. The Mexican sunflower design is first drawn with chalk by artisans who then spend 30 minutes hand-etching each goblet into an individual beauty. A vivid verde-green, each goblet adds a definite wow to margaritas or sangria—or even smoothies. This unique stemware accommodates formal or informal entertaining with equal verve. Set of 4. Each holds 12 oz.
In the picturesque town of San Miguel de Allende, the glass studios of Rose Ann and Charlie Hall are breathing new life into an ancient trade. With the help of local apprentices, many of whom are physically challenged like Charlie himself, these master glassmiths design and create one-of-a-kind serving pieces that are inspired by Rose Ann’s 35-year love affair with Mexico and its people. The Halls and their artisans are unmistakable masters of their craft. Their Etched Green Glass Goblets are created from hand-blown glass in a detailed, labor-intensive process. It takes up to six months to train an artisan in the etching method, an art known as grabado, and each piece produced takes 30 minutes to etch. The design is applied to a pitcher by first drawing a girasol—or sunflower—on the glass surface in chalk, then hand etching the design. Based on French influences dating back to the 1800s, this is a vanishing art form that the dedicated artisans at Rose Ann Hall are keeping alive in their beautiful and unique pieces.
