Lake Glass

2026
Lake Glass begins with a memory of summer rituals in Vihtijärvi, Finland: swimming after a hot Finnish sauna, sitting by a bonfire next to the lake, eating smoked salmon and mashed potato with wild garlic flowers picked from the garden and sharing white wine, sparkling wine, cider, and beer.

The glass cup combines two ways of making. The cup part is blown into a mold, a process often used for repeated and controlled production. The foot is first formed in the mold, then shaped further by hand-blowing. By using these two processes in one object, the collection shows a simple pairing between each technique. It reflects how a drinking glass can carry both the precision of a mold and the craftsmanship that come from the hand of glass blower.
