Handblown using glass enriched with metallic oxides, this vase carries the rhythm of a craft that has been practised in Al-Khalil (Hebron) for generations, where molten glass is shaped through heat, breath, and steady, skilled hands.
Sourced from local glassblowers in the West Bank, each piece reflects a way of making that remains deeply rooted in tradition, with the deep blue colour forming during the process, creating rich layers and patterns that shift subtly from one piece to the next.
There is a quiet presence to it that feels both expressive and grounded, whether used to hold flowers or placed within the home as a standalone piece.
No two are exactly the same. Variations in tone, pattern, and form are part of the process, giving each vase its own character.
Each piece supports independent glassblowers in the West Bank, helping to sustain a centuries-old craft that continues despite ongoing challenges to production.
A portion of proceeds is shared with marginalised communities through our ongoing partnership with human rights organisation Restless Beings.
For every order placed, we also plant a tree, contributing to long-term environmental restoration.
Phoenician glass is one of the earliest forms of glassmaking, with origins along the eastern Mediterranean where the craft first began.
In Al-Khalil (Hebron), this tradition continues today within small, family-run workshops, where molten glass is shaped by hand and enriched with mineral elements that create its distinctive layers of colour.
What was once a widespread practice has become more fragile over time, yet it continues through the hands of makers who carry forward the knowledge, techniques, and rhythm of the craft.
Through this process, Phoenician glass remains a living tradition, shaped by history, place, and persistence.
