Waldglas

The Waldglas works draw from medieval and Renaissance glassmaking traditions, when nomadic workshops used local materials—wood ash and iron-rich sand—to create glass with a characteristic green or yellow tint. Originally produced for everyday vessels and later for stained-glass windows, Waldglas is recognized for its distinctive forms. Excerpts of visual language from this period have been borrowed and elaborated on to create distinctive small sculptures.

Caring instructions

To keep your glassware pristine for generations, follow these simple steps:

  • Cleaning Solution: Use a mixture of equal parts distilled water, white vinegar, and isopropyl alcohol. Apply with a lint-free cloth for a natural, streak-free shine.
  • Avoid Scratches: Limit contact between glasses to prevent scratches and chipping. This applies to both hand washing and dishwasher use. Ensure glasses have ample space in the dishwasher and use tines to secure them to avoid rattling.
  • Dishwasher Tips: Be mindful of the dishwasher's design and avoid pre-washing glasses, as it can cause cloudiness. Refer to expert advice on maintaining shine and avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent stress and breakage.
