Cupid Heart Rim Hammered Glass 22.2 cm Tall 240 g Gold Edge Bowl

Cupid Heart Rim Hammered Glass 22.2 cm Tall 240 g Gold Edge Bowl is a stemmed glass built around a hammered bowl finished with an irregular heart shaped rim on a slim stem in clear glass with a gold rim, with hammered surface with an irregular heart rim. 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 an irregular heart shaped rim above a hammered bowl, finished with a gold edge.

Irregular rims need a custom divider, because a standard round cavity will not protect the high points. 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.

• Heart Shaped Rim: An irregular heart rim is the whole selling point and photographs well as a gift item.
• Hammered Bowl: The hammered face hides scuffs and scatters light through the wine.
• 240 g Weight: Heavy for a 22.2 cm glass, which reads as premium in the hand.
• Gold Edge: The gold edge frames the heart shape, which is what makes it read as a gift piece.
• Irregular By Design: The rim is deliberately uneven, so buyers should expect variation rather than a fault.
• Seasonal Demand: Heart shapes sell strongly around Valentine and wedding season.

This stemmed glass is aimed at wedding and Valentine programmes, gift retail, dessert and cocktail service. 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.
