Luke Aaron X Pairpoint Bell Glass - Large
Luke Aaron X Pairpoint Bell Glass - Large
This timeless footed goblet can serve as a water glass or an elegant vessel for small florals. Completely mouth blown without the aid of a mould, it replicates the weightiness and one-of-a-kind nature of early glassware. The faint acid-etched vine decoration has an ephemeral quality, giving the impression of a surface that has been gently worn down over years of use.
Based in Massachusetts, Pairpoint is America’s oldest glassware manufacturer. Its storied pieces are found in museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Each work is made one-at-a-time entirely by hand - displaying subtle variations in size and decoration inherent to the artisan’s process.
