    Designed by Taddei Sestini, this set of six crystal glasses appears not merely crafted, but formed — as if shaped by glacial compression and time. Their thick, ice-like bases refract light with quiet intensity, evoking frozen lakes, winter shadows, and the suspended stillness of a landscape in hibernation.

    More than utilitarian objects, these glasses stand as tactile sculptures: architectural in form, elemental in presence. Their textured geometry speaks to a material sensibility shaped by the rhythms of season and terrain — where function becomes language, and form a vessel for memory.

    Now part of Body of Glacier collection, they contribute to a broader meditation on water and transformation — tracing how 20th-century glassmaking captured the sensorial qualities of ice. In this intersection of poetry and functionality, each glass becomes a fragment of a larger reflection on matter, time, and domestic rituals attuned to nature’s vocabulary.
