Built on family values and known for its exquisite techniques, this Chinese factory was the first of its kind to create handmade, high- quality glassware, and has almost 40 years of experience in the field.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][sober_banner image_size=”medium” image=”31095″][\/sober_banner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][sober_banner image_size=”full” text_position=”right” image=”31096″][\/sober_banner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Crafting beautiful glass and stemware is as much an art as it is a science. We believe serious craftsmanship is needed at every step of the process when making the Ripple Series. A process with several different working procedures, which can take up to 24 hours depending on the complexity of the glass.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/zNMfZyQeSTU” align=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

From this point, the glasses undergo a process to ensure they retain the envisioned shape. Finished pieces are placed to cool down at a safe temperature. Glass that is not properly cooled can be dangerous as it may shatter due to thermal stress. After this, a laser cuts the rim, and a wet coarse-grit grinding disc grinds down the sharp edges. Every ripple is carefully cleaned three times before the final quality check.<\/p>\n

As every single Ripple glass is mouth-blown, each piece is unique and none are 100% identical, as the glassblower influences the final result through the amount of glass and air pressure he or she uses during the blowing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][sober_banner image_size=”medium” image=”31109″][\/sober_banner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][sober_banner image_size=”medium” text_position=”right” image=”31108″][\/sober_banner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

The collection contains seven different types of glasses, each with its own unique shape and identity, but together they form a family. The entire collection includes a set of four stackable water glasses, a set of four long drink glasses, a set of two champagne saucers, a set of four small stackable glasses, a set of two wine glasses, a carafe and a small carafe set with accom- panying glasses. Enough to complete a stylish and decadent table setting for any occasion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][sober_banner image_size=”medium” text_position=”center” image=”31114″][\/sober_banner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”42px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
