Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these tumblers dishwasher safe?

No, these tumblers are strictly hand wash only. Dishwasher cycles can be too harsh for hand-blown glass and may cause damage or cloudiness.

What does 'hand-blown' mean for the product?

Hand-blown means each tumbler is shaped by inflating molten glass into a bubble using a blowpipe. This artisanal process results in unique, one-of-a-kind pieces, which may have slight variations.

Can I put hot beverages in these tumblers?

It is not recommended to use these tumblers for very hot beverages. Rapid temperature changes can cause thermal shock, potentially cracking the glass.

What are the dimensions of the tumblers?

Specific dimensions can vary slightly due to the handmade nature. Please refer to the product specifications on the retailer's website for precise measurements, but they are generally designed for comfortable hand-holding.

How should I store these tumblers to prevent damage?

Store them carefully in a cupboard, ensuring they do not knock against other items. Consider placing a soft cloth or protective liner between tumblers if stacking, though it's generally best to store them upright without stacking.

Are the colors true to the images online?

While we strive for accuracy, colors may appear slightly different due to variations in monitor settings and the unique nature of handmade glass. The set includes six distinct, vibrant colors.

What is the warranty period for these tumblers?

Warranty information typically depends on the retailer. Please check the specific warranty details provided at the point of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Tumbler arrived with a minor imperfection.

Due to the handmade nature of these tumblers, slight variations, small air bubbles, or minor irregularities are characteristic and part of their unique charm. If the imperfection is significant and affects usability, please contact customer support.

Cloudy residue after washing.

This can occur if hard water is used or if soap is not fully rinsed. Try washing with distilled water or use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately with a soft cloth.

Scratches on the surface.

Scratches can occur from abrasive cleaning tools or contact with other hard objects. Always use soft cloths for washing and drying, and store tumblers separately or with protective layers between them.
