Cat Applique Orange Stemmed Cup 13 cm Tall 370 g Bubble Bowl Glass

Cat Applique Orange Stemmed Cup 13 cm Tall 370 g Bubble Bowl Glass is a stemmed cup built around a tapered bowl on a short stem over a 7.3 cm foot, with a moulded cat on the body in translucent orange with a black cat motif, with irregular bubble inclusions under an applied glass cat. It is produced in our glass workshop for buyers who need a repeatable decorative programme rather than a one off sample, and the piece shown here carries the a short stemmed cup with a black cat fused to an orange bubble bowl.

Applied motifs are the fastest part of this product to tool, so buyers can run a short seasonal production run without committing to a full new mould programme. Every unit is annealed in a controlled lehr so that wall stress stays within our breakage specification, and dimensions are checked against the measurement sheet printed on the photography. The result is a glass that looks individual on the shelf but behaves predictably in a container load.

• Applied Cat Motif: The cat is a separate glass piece fused during annealing, so it does not fall off in washing like a glued decoration.
• Orange Bubble Bowl: Irregular inclusions give the orange tint depth, so the cup reads as coloured glass rather than coated glass.
• Short 13 cm Format: A short stemmed cup that suits dessert, punch and novelty serves rather than wine.
• 370 g Weight: Heavy for its height, which is what keeps such a wide bowl stable.
• Single Motif Focus: One strong motif photographs well at thumbnail size, which matters on marketplaces.
• Gift Ready: Novelty motifs sell best boxed, and this shape packs simply in a single carton.

This stemmed cup is aimed at gift retail, novelty bar programmes, souvenir shops and seasonal promotions. Buyers typically place it in a range that needs one recognisable decorative accent without moving to a full bespoke mould, and because the body is a standard production shape the tooling cost is already absorbed into the piece price.

In service the glass is expected to move between back of house washing and front of house display several times a day. The surface withstands standard commercial detergents, and the rim geometry has been kept simple so that stacking and racking do not put point loads on the lip. For retail programmes the same item can be boxed as a single unit or combined with the matching pieces in our range to build a story around colour and pattern.

Sampling buyers usually test three things: whether the decoration survives twenty dishwasher cycles, whether the base sits flat on a granite or marble surface, and whether case pack dimensions match their pallet plan. All three can be confirmed with a stock sample before any production deposit is placed.

Each piece is packed in a moulded pulp or corrugated divider inside a five layer export carton, with a printed sleeve available for retail programmes. Case pack quantities are set so that a full pallet loads without void fill, which keeps freight cost per unit down for mixed container orders.

Production is inspected at three points: incoming glass quality, decoration placement, and final packing. AQL inspection follows the usual 2.5 major and 4.0 minor plan unless a buyer specifies otherwise, and we keep a retained sample from each run so that repeat orders can be matched for colour and pattern density.

Hand washing with a soft sponge is recommended where a decorative surface is present, and dishwasher use is acceptable on a normal cycle at moderate temperature. Avoid sudden temperature change such as pouring boiling liquid into a chilled glass, since thermal shock remains the most common cause of breakage in any annealed glassware. Stored correctly, the piece is designed for years of daily use.
