Moon Cup

Tabitha's Glass Emporium proudly presents the exquisite Moon Cup, a murrine drop vessel. Our skilled artisans craft each piece with precision, ensuring no two are alike. The uniqueness of every Moon Cup comes from the distinctiveness of each individual cane segment.

Creating a murrine object involves a meticulous 3-4 step procedure that requires expertise at every stage. While challenges can arise, the results always reflect the care and attention given to each piece.

First, our artisans heat the glass in a compact kiln, carefully placed at an elevated level. Afterward, they extract molten glass from beneath the kiln in the form of canes. Next, they precision-cut the canes into uniform lengths, then arrange the pieces on their ends with exacting care. Once the arrangement is ready, they fuse the segments together in a kiln. Finally, the creation undergoes additional kiln sessions, transforming into the final desired shape.

The process follows four distinct stages. First, we create the murrine by crafting individual glass elements into unique patterns. Then, we fuse the pieces into a full-circle shape, where the glass elements meld together into a cohesive design. After that, we add texture to the piece to enhance its visual depth and dimension. Lastly, we shape the glass into a bowl, completing the functional yet beautiful form of the Moon Cup.

Each stage is essential to achieving the final piece, which blends artistry with utility. The result is a Moon Cup that is not only functional but also a testament to the skill and dedication behind each creation at Tabitha's Glass Emporium.

You will be amazed by the perfection of this magnificent piece - Moon Cup.
