Crystal Cut Wine Glasses ‘Grapes’ Caesar Crystal Bohemiae
These crystal cut wine glasses are made using the meticulous Bohemian process of layering one set of glass on top of the other and hand-cutting the top layer of coloured glass to leave the clear glass crystal shining through.
These authentic Bohemian pieces have been made the same way since time immemorial, and they are as highly sought after today as Bohemian glass was when the furnaces first were lit almost 700 years ago.
Only the best and most capable Bohemian glass artisans are able to craft these glasses. Not a single part of the glass-making process can be mechanised, as it requires meticulous glass masters at every stage of its making.
N.B. The images shown are an example of the ones in the series. Each piece is handmade and therefore there will be small variations in colour and pattern. Each one is completely unique and signed by the artist.
Crystal Cut Wine Glasses – Artist
The crystal-cut wine glasses are hand-made by introducing layers of clear and colourful crystal together at 800 °C. These layers are entwined at just the right thickness. This ‘flashing’ glass is difficult to create, and only a few skilled glassworkers are capable of performing this process. Each luxurious piece comes with a certificate of Bohemian authenticity.
These pieces are made by exceptionally skilled master craftsmen and women. Even today, modern manufacturing cannot replicate this awe-inspiring process.

Once they have cooled from being worked in the fiery furnace, the Czech glass pieces are left to cool. Only then does the glass cutter begin their work. These elegant works of art are so finely cut that they catch the light beautifully.
These are the most exceptional pieces of luxurious glass crystal that we have encountered, and we look forward to bringing them to your home soon. The Caesar Crystal Studio has a range of wonderful pieces of cut glass art that really make them proud. Their stock is very wide, and there are some gorgeous glass decanters that we would like to bring you in the not-too-distant future.
