CREATE A NEW AMBIENCE IN YOUR HOME BY UPDATING YOUR GLASSWARE
TO FEEL AS PREMIUM AS IT LOOKS.
From champagne flutes to tumblers, copa de balons to wine glasses, the glassware
range at Morleys Bexleyheath has been curated to include a variety of styles,
including contemporary, classic elegance and unusual textures, to add a different
dimension to a bar or table. Here, we look to the origins of two glassware
purveyors, who continue to create and innovate, whilst remaining true to their
traditional techniques.
Dartington
Born in North Devon in 1967, Dartington Glass, as it is now known, was recognised
for crafting simple yet functional glassware. Using traditional Scandinavian
techniques, their ethos was clean and simple design style. Fast forward 50 years
and the same vision stands - with Dartington’s dedicated team of designers and
accomplished glass makers, some who have been honing their craft for over 40
years, led by principal designer Hilary Green, all remaining true to this sentiment.
As a nation that craves experiences and
enjoys sharing memories, especially as
Christmas approaches, there is something
quite nostalgic about sitting with those
close to us, sipping on our favourite
beverage. Whisky connoisseurs will revel
in consuming the tipple with the Whisky
Experience Tasting set (£40). Designed
specifically for the enjoyment of whisky,
the wide bowl and narrow rim elevate the
aroma and flavour discovery, making for
an ideal gift or a great addition to your
own glassware line-up.
DARTINGTON WHISKY EXPERIENCE
Whisky not your drink of choice? Then look to Dartington’s Just The One Gin
& Tonic Copa and Brandy Glasses (£10 each). For a G&T that looks and
tastes the part, the Copa glass takes inspiration from the style of glass used in
Spanish gin bars with high-quality to boot. For traditional brandy enthusiasts,
the wide bowl, short stem design allows the glass to sit perfectly in the palm of
your hand as you relax on a cold winter’s evening.
LSA INTERNATIONAL - DUSK COLLECTION
LSA International
For over half a century, LSA International has created contemporary bar,
table and interior decoration collections, evolving co-founder Janusz Lubkowski’s
flair and vision for crafting pieces made from glass, porcelain, leather, wood
and enamelled steel. Today, Monika Lubkowska-Jonas continues her father’s
passion for creativity and innovation using complex artisan techniques - the
signature of the brand - whilst ensuring the highest quality finish. Bring Monika’s
aesthetic into your home with LSA’s Dusk. This beautiful and unique collection
of drinkware and decorative pieces boasts a delicate mix of colours, that glisten
in the daylight, then fade as the sun sets at dusk. Giving true light and shade to
complement your table top, sheer lustres in grey, green and pink hues are applied
to tumblers and flutes by hand, with each iridescent finish enhanced by the
pleated glass texture. If you want to inject subtle colour in to your dining table
or bar as you entertain this season, the Dusk collection is the perfect way to serve
wine, spirits and cocktails in style - guaranteed to be the talking point as day
turns to evening.
Whether you are hosting Christmas lunch and want to bring the table to life
with delicate, luxury glassware, or looking for a gift which is unique, high-quality
and crafted using meticulous classic techniques, visit Morleys Bexleyheath in the
