Icy Whirlpool Cocktail Glass
Icy Whirlpool Cocktail Glass
The city of Hebron has a tradition of glassblowing dating back to the 14th century. Recycled bottles are collected from local businesses, ground into a fine powder then melted in high temperature ovens. The molten glass quickly cools into graceful shapes with unique patterns as it is blown and spun on the end of a metal tube. This modern interpretation of Phoenician glass is the perfect vessel for dressing up any cocktail.
