About the Item
24K is a sophisticated whiskey set handcrafted from clear mouth-blown glass and adorned with pure 24 K gold leaves, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship. In addition to the unique tumblers, this set also includes a matching whiskey bottle and cigar ashtray.
Crafted through a traditional mouth-blowing technique, yet utilizing contemporary recycled glass from car headlights known for its durability and quality, skilled artisans carefully shape the glass entirely freehand. The gold leaf is applied to the molten glass during the hot-working process, and its placement cannot be fully controlled by the glassblower, resulting in a truly distinctive, one-of-a-kind design for each piece.
The transparent body of the glass allows for admiration of the natural color of the whiskey, while the addition of gold leaf creates a subtle yet captivating accent, enhancing the overall allure of the collection. The distinctive feature of the solid and heavy rounded bottom allows the tumblers to fit comfortably in the hand and ensures a secure grip, even after indulging in a few sips!
Please note: This piece has been designed by Laura Sattin and made in collaboration with skilled glassblowers at a furnace located at the foot of the Bernese Alps in Switzerland. The slight variations in shape, alterations in color, subtle tool marks, or small air bubbles that can be seen in the glass all testify to the authenticity of the craftsmanship. Due to the handcrafted process each piece is unique.
The technique of applying gold leaf to blown glass involves several precise steps. Firstly, the glass is heated to a high temperature, making it malleable for shaping. Once the desired shape is achieved through blowing, the glass is then cooled slightly to ensure it retains its form. Next, the gold leaf is prepared by artisans. Gold leaf is extremely thin sheets of gold and it's delicate to handle. While the glass is still hot and pliable, the artisans delicately apply the gold leaf to the surface. This is often done by gently pressing the gold leaf onto the glass using specialized tools, brushes, or even their fingers. The heat of the glass helps the gold leaf adhere to the surface. Once the gold leaf is applied, the glass is carefully cooled and annealed to strengthen it and ensure the gold leaf remains securely attached. This process requires skill and precision to achieve the desired result without damaging the delicate gold leaf or the glass itself. The end result is a stunning piece of glassware adorned with elegant gold accents, adding a touch of sophistication to the finished product.

Contemporary Glass vase Sakura II by Maarten Vrolijk
Located in 1204, CH
The Sakura glass Art collection uses cherry blossoms as its inspiration.“I am bewitched by spring”, Maarten Vrolijk explains. “Where I grew up in small Dutch town. There was a very special cherry tree in our garden that I felt very connected to in a certain way"".
""I regard my Sakura glass as a canvas where I paint with the various glass pieces like a painter with his paint”.
As a child there was something magical about how the black dark branches were converted into something magnificent in the form of cherry blossom that was apparent everywhere. I could not understand how people could keep on working or carry on living in the normal way when this miracle was in progress and nature was wakening again. Children see more clearly. As adults we are so busy fighting for our own egos, for money, success, a bigger house and suchlike that we forget what is important. ”
The glass vessels are recognised with their outgrowth of colored glass fragments. The volatility in accomplishing the exceptional thickness of his vases creates a risky balance between strength and delicacy. The thermal stress caused when trying to equalize the interior and exterior temperature of the cooling vessels, is fraught with the threat of breakage. The vessels show show a duality between the crystalline clarity posed against their substantial physical impact. To create each piece, a meticulously patterned bed...
