Product Information

Full details

The Tom Dixon Bump Glasses are for those who appreciate artisanal drinkware and wish to elevate their entertaining or everyday drinking experience. Their key benefit lies in their unique, hand-blown glass artistry, offering a touch of understated luxury. A potential caveat is that due to their hand-blown nature, each glass will have subtle variations, meaning no two are exactly alike. These glasses are part of a minimalist collection designed to complement the Tom Dixon Bump Jug and enhance the presentation of any beverage, from cocktails to simple refreshments.

FAQs

Are these glasses dishwasher safe?

No, the Tom Dixon Bump Glasses are not dishwasher safe. Hand washing with mild soap and warm water is recommended to preserve their unique finish and prevent damage.

What are the dimensions of the two sizes?

The glasses are available in a tall version measuring 8.4cm and a shorter counterpart measuring 6.3cm in height.

Is the color consistent across all glasses?

Due to the mouth-blowing process, each glass features unique subtle variations in its smoked and green tonal translucency. While the color family is consistent, no two glasses will be exactly identical.

What material are the glasses made from?

The glasses are crafted from borosilicate glass, known for its strength and heat resistance.

Can I use these glasses for hot beverages?

While borosilicate glass has good heat resistance, these glasses are primarily designed for cold or room-temperature beverages. Extreme temperature changes should be avoided.

Do these glasses match the Tom Dixon Bump Jug?

Yes, the Tom Dixon Bump Glasses are designed as part of the Bump family and are intended to complement the Tom Dixon Bump Jug for a cohesive aesthetic.

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

Mouth-blown means each glass is individually shaped by a glassblower using a blowpipe. This artisanal technique results in unique characteristics and slight variations in each piece.

Troubleshooting

Glass appears cloudy after washing

This can happen if a dishwasher is used. For hand-washed items, ensure all soap residue is thoroughly rinsed away. Use a soft cloth to dry completely and prevent water spots.

Minor imperfections or bubbles in the glass

These are inherent characteristics of the hand-blown production process and are not considered defects. They add to the unique charm of each piece.

Glass feels fragile

While made from borosilicate glass, which is more durable than standard glass, hand-blown items can be more delicate. Handle with care, especially during washing and drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Tom Dixon Bump Glasses require no setup; they are ready for use upon unboxing.

Compatibility: These glasses are designed as standalone drinkware and are compatible with standard beverage service. They are intended to complement the Tom Dixon Bump Jug and other minimalist drinkware.

Care: To maintain the beauty and integrity of these hand-blown glasses, hand washing is recommended. Use a mild detergent and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the glass surface. Do not place in a dishwasher, as the high heat and aggressive detergents can damage the glass and its unique finish. Allow glasses to air dry or gently dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Store carefully to prevent chipping or breakage.
