'martenee' glasses by orfeo quagliata
'martenee' glasses designed and created by orfeo quagliata for phuze design.

clean lines and organic layers make the martenee glass a truly sculptural object.

the solid glass base is composed of cuttings from orfeo's vases and larger projects, with a handcrafted clear top portion that holds martinis (or any other cocktails) beautifully.

each piece comes signed and dated by the designer, who is making his mark both at home and abroad as one of the finest modern glassmakers.

orfeo is the son of renowned glass artist narcissus quagliata and grew up on an artist commune in san francisco. after spending time in austria with his grandmother herta jalkotzy, an award winning jewelry designer in the wiener werkstaette, orfeo apprenticed for 2 years in spain with josef fernandez-castrillo before moving to milan to work with the famed grimaldi watch family. now, quagliata lives and works in mexico city where he produces exceptional glass jewelry and objects.

these are handmade items because of the nature of these items color and consistency may vary.
