Glass, they say, is never quite a solid. It is a sort of liquid, suspended in its own interpretation of time. Never is this more apparent than in these hand-blown glasses from Malfatti.

Created in upstate New York of borosilicate glass (lead-free, of superior durability, resistant to chemical and temperature shock, it’s the stuff they use to make scientific laboratory glass) each of these feather-light pieces is unique in its imperfections, each tells its own new history. 

Hold one up and gaze through it. Better yet, fill it with some uisage beatha.

Pair of small glasses, 3 - 3 1/4 inches high, 6 - 8 ounces.  Dishwasher safe.
