The art of hand blown glass or vidrio soplado has diversified throughout the world, yet it is in the state of Jalisco, Mexico, where allegedly more pieces are crafted by talented artisans with techniques passed down from generation to generation.
Blown glass art is said to have originated in present day Syria during the Roman Empire, which is how it arrived in Italy, where blown glass art developed various styles. At first, the focus was on color and design, then came the introduction of new techniques that resulted in greater transparency and thus fragility, which were highly admired. Thus clear glass items became more valued over tinted glass.
Blown glass techniques made it possible for a greater number of products to be crafted, making glass a material of frequent use in the creation of drinking glasses, wine and liqueur glasses and other type of recipients.
Without a doubt, what distinguishes Mexican hand blown glass art is the interplay of clear glass with such colors as cobalt blue and other vibrant hues. Techniques have been refined since the 18th century, when this art form was introduced in Mexico by the Spanish, and spread throughout the country. It is said that blown glass arrived in the region of Guadalajara, Tlaquepaque and Tonala in 1820, thanks to an initiative by the Church whereby priests wanted to improve the work of the small glass workshops, so they brought two master artisans from Mexico City.
Nowadays blown glass is a term reserved for the crafting of glass objects through the creation of air bubbles in the molten glass. One way these bubbles may appear is by injecting air through a metal tube with the use of a machine.
The other method, featured in our Hand Blown Collection, is the traditional way – when the artisan holds the metal pipe with one hand, picking up the molten glass with one end of the tube, spinning it while blowing through the other end of the pipe and shaping it with the other hand.
In Mexico, hand blown glass can result in any form or shape imaginable, from tequila shot glasses to highball, old fashion drinking glasses, and jumbo sized glasses. There are martini, wine and champagne glasses as well as beer goblets. Other shapes include pitchers, vases, ice buckets, snack bowls, salad bowls, fruit bowls, dessert cups and bowls, and more.

I ordered these for my husband for Christmas. He enjoys making homemade margaritas and has wanted some authentic glasses for that. The ones we found on our honeymoon in Mexico were the traditional shape and way too big. These are much more fitting for what we need. Still a bit big, but they are beautiful. Thanks!

While I know that handcrafted items like this will vary, I was disappointed that these glasses did not have any really red dots in them, contrary to the photos on the website or catalog.

These are absolutely beautiful. They are very sturdy and nice size (little over 16oz I think). We have washed them on the top rack of the dishwasher without problems. I was really worried about having them shipped from Mexico to Oregon. But they were well protected and arrived earlier than I expected. I looked for almost a year for a set of dishwasher safe glasses this size. These are way beyond what I was looking at as far as quality and beauty. I would love to buy other glassware from these amazing artists. Thank you!

I usually try to spend no more than $2 on glass tumblers for daily use and decided to splurge on these as they're absolutely gorgeous and very reasonably priced for being hand-blown. I am incredibly happy with these glasses. They are sturdy, beautiful, well-sized and clearly hand made. Each glass has slight variations such as tiny trapped bubbles that I love seeing in things purchased directly from a hot shop but usually have to spend a lot more money to find. Totally worth it.

Again, I have been a customer of Javier and Efren for a long time through this site. I have purchased a variety of drinkware for our use and as gifts for family members. These were a gift and were very well received and are appreciated by the recipients as well as the gifter. They have enough heft to sit sturdily on a table or bar. They have the capacity to handle a double shot with room at the top for movement without spillage. The confetti pattern is one of their most attractive with multiple colors popping. These gentlemen always hit it out of the park.

Each glass is excellent, sturdy quality, and of course you see a few bubbles, as with all homemade glass. I can see them becoming an heirloom piece.

This was a first-time wine goblet venture and, as always, I could not have been more pleased. The glasses have heft, which I think is a good thing. I don't just mean sturdiness, but there is an added element when you raise one to drink from it. The color is magnificent as is the design. Another touchdown for these craftsmen.

Ordered a dozen of these striking glasses and was absolutely stunned when they arrived--extremely well packaged, compactly and with no fuss, each glass made me gasp as I brought it out into the light. Every one of the 12 glasses is beautiful in its own way, and as a set they are remarkable consistent in size, weight, etc. I like that they are thicker than molded glassware because this keeps drinks cooler and they're aren't so easy to tip over. I recently dropped one, it hit a metal basket and then fell to the floor--not a single chip or crack! Very durable as well as original and beautiful! I hope to have these for a long long time!

The art of hand blown glass or vidrio soplado has diversified throughout the world, yet it is in the state of Jalisco, Mexico, where allegedly more pieces are crafted by talented artisans with techniques passed down from generation to generation.
Blown glass art is said to have originated in present day Syria during the Roman Empire, which is how it arrived in Italy, where blown glass art developed various styles. At first, the focus was on color and design, then came the introduction of new techniques that resulted in greater transparency and thus fragility, which were highly admired. Thus clear glass items became more valued over tinted glass.
Blown glass techniques made it possible for a greater number of products to be crafted, making glass a material of frequent use in the creation of drinking glasses, wine and liqueur glasses and other type of recipients.
Without a doubt, what distinguishes Mexican hand blown glass art is the interplay of clear glass with such colors as cobalt blue and other vibrant hues. Techniques have been refined since the 18th century, when this art form was introduced in Mexico by the Spanish, and spread throughout the country. It is said that blown glass arrived in the region of Guadalajara, Tlaquepaque and Tonala in 1820, thanks to an initiative by the Church whereby priests wanted to improve the work of the small glass workshops, so they brought two master artisans from Mexico City.
Nowadays blown glass is a term reserved for the crafting of glass objects through the creation of air bubbles in the molten glass. One way these bubbles may appear is by injecting air through a metal tube with the use of a machine.
The other method, featured in our Hand Blown Collection, is the traditional way – when the artisan holds the metal pipe with one hand, picking up the molten glass with one end of the tube, spinning it while blowing through the other end of the pipe and shaping it with the other hand.
In Mexico, hand blown glass can result in any form or shape imaginable, from tequila shot glasses to highball, old fashion drinking glasses, and jumbo sized glasses. There are martini, wine and champagne glasses as well as beer goblets. Other shapes include pitchers, vases, ice buckets, snack bowls, salad bowls, fruit bowls, dessert cups and bowls, and more.
