Signature Goblets & Decanters

2022

SIGNATURE GOBLETS & DECANTERS

This year’s signature goblet and decanter were designed and hand-blown by the Museum of Glass Hot Shop Team. The bold and vibrant design is symbolic of the artistic energy of the past 20 years, and of the Museum's excitement for the future. Only 50 goblets and 35 decanters were made for this year’s gala. Make sure to purchase yours early! These limited-edition items are sure to sell out.

Goblets $250 each Decanter $275 each (Accompanied by a bottle of premium Glass Vodka)
