The "U" edition of the Gesti tumbler series by Margherita Rui features bold, swirling bands of colour that wrap around the glass in a fluid, ribbon-like motion. The contrast between the clear form and vivid stripes gives it a playful yet refined visual rhythm.
These glasses are a joyful expression of colour and craftsmanship. Each piece is mouth-blown in a stationary mold and finished by hand, creating a striking balance between precision and artistry.
The bold, intersecting lines and rich hues of coloured glass in pasta give them a dynamic presence on any table. Dishwasher-safe at low temperatures (40 °C recommended), they are both practical and sculptural—perfect for those who appreciate design in every sip.
Available in four colour combinations: lilac with orange, bordeaux with turquoise, blue with yellow, and turquoise with orangey red.
Material: Glass, handmade

more information
"In pasta" refers to a traditional glassmaking technique where the color is infused directly into the glass mass during production. Unlike painted or surface-dyed glass, this method ensures the color runs through the entire piece—resulting in greater depth, vibrancy, and lasting brilliance.
