How glass is born
Glassworks operation
The heart of our glassworks consists of four gas-fired furnaces. Every day from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., individual “glass teams” operate at the furnaces, each made up of a master glassmaker and an assistant. At temperatures of around 1,120 °C, the first shapes are formed and gradually transformed into unique glass pieces.
Raw materials and glass melting
We melt high-quality glass pellets that meet the standards for crystal glass, or we recycle our own glass cullet. During the melting process, temperatures rise to up to 1,400 °C. It is in this extreme heat that crystal glass is born, achieving perfect clarity, brilliance, and sparkle.
Craftsmanship
Traditional hand glassblowing has been passed down through generations in our glassworks. Every product, whether drinking glassware, lighting components, or unique pieces for designers and architects, is one of a kind and carries the touch of experienced glassmakers as well as the tradition of the craft itself.
