Mexican Glassware
Welcome to our Hand Blown Mexican Glassware Collection
Mexico is the land of the master craftsman, and among this group is the glass blower.
The first primitive Mexican glassware was produced in Puebla around 1535 to 1542. For hundreds of years, with nothing more than a blob of molten glass, a long hollow pipe, and a few primitive tools, these artisans have produced glass items in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Including, Wine Glasses, High ball, Ice tea, Tumbler, Martini, Margarita, Shots, Rocks/Double Old Fashion, Juice, Beer Pilsners, and a variety of Margarita pitchers and round Bola Pitchers used for iced tea.
Originally, Mexican glass was called "bubble glass" because of all the bubbles produced when methods were not as uniform as today. Now days glass blowers that can blow large bubbles inside the glassware are considered to be "Master Blowers"
Pitchers and glasses come in a variety of styles and colored rims and bases in Cobalt (blue), Turquoise (teal), Amber (brown), Red, Green and Confetti. We also have an Ice Tea glass that the glass blower "pinches" when it is hot, producing the perfect places for a hand to grasp the glass even when they are wet!
