Vermont-Branded Glassware
Our original hand-blown Vermont cocktail / whiskey glass was the first product in our collection of glassware literally branded with the outline of Vermont on the base. These glasses, handcrafted by our talented glassblowers, are fine, substantial pieces you’ll be proud to own and use, and give as gifts. Crafted with care in the heart of the Green Mountain State, as seen below.
Born of fire
All of our handmade glass products begin in a crucible filled with 2,100° F molten glass.
Gathered & Shaped
Glass at the end of a blow pipe shaped by a “block,” a wooden half-bowl with a handle.
Fitting the Mold
The glass is blown and rotated into one of our custom molds, creating the final shape.
Cut off
The glass is prepped to separate from the blow pipe, as we shape a neck with metal “jacks”.
Branded with Vermont
Removed from the pipe, the base is torched to soften the glass in order to add our Vermont stamp.
Stamped
The stamp of (Vermont) approval. Our custom made metal stamp is applied quickly; it’s only a matter of seconds until the base cools off.
Oh, Yes.
Final stamp in place. The edges and reflection of the stamp make for an intriguing play of light once the glass is filled with your favorite pour.
Your Glass
The resulting glass embodies attention to detail as well as a tribute to the age-old craftsmanship of turning molten glass into a unique, treasured item.
