Product Details

The GOURD wine decanter is designed with a concave structure at the bottom, making it easy to grasp securely with your fingers. Made of glass, the gourd-shaped decanter allows for a clear view of the liquid inside. When exposed to light and shadow, hidden stripes pour out and bloom freely.

The skilled craftsmen meticulously control the thickness of the decanter's body, but the texture is impossible to predefine. Each decanter presents a sense of freedom and relaxation. The "impurities" within the transparent glass are even purer than transparency itself, as they belong to a greater order.

Glass, with its delicate nature, is something ceramics can never replace. It is transparent, fragile, and always dignified.

Gourd wine decanter

The clear version comes with a "vine cork," made of white oak, typically used for storing whiskey, and sealed with cork. The cork provides excellent sealing, ensuring that the liquid remains unchanged for several months.

The clear ink-colored decanter releases almost all "imperfections" found in glass materials such as bubbles, specks, ripples, and spots, revealing the texture reminiscent of ancient glassware and ceramics. Glassblowing for glass vessels requires great craftsmanship and material expertise to achieve a flawless transparency. Conversely, to accurately display these rich "imperfections," it requires even more patience.

Please note that the clear ink-colored product is made of artificially blown glass and may contain bubbles, specks, ripples, and spots, which are considered normal features of the production process. The clear ink-colored version comes with a black "vine cork," made of white oak, typically used for storing whiskey, and sealed with cork. The exterior adopts a lacquering technique to reduce the number of polishing processes, thus preserving the natural grain. The glass appears in ink color. In traditional Chinese ink painting, ink is divided into five colors. Due to the thinness of the glass vessel, it corresponds to the lightest "clear ink color."

There are two main forming methods used in general glassware manufacturing: manual blowing and machine blowing. Manual blowing, colloquially known as "blowing large bubbles," is a technique that was transmitted from Central Asia to China in the 5th century. The air bubbles produced in handblown glass are normal and exist in all handblown glass vessels, and are an important distinguishing characteristic of handblown glass versus machine-made glass vessels discernible to the naked eye.

Gourd wine decanter

Handblown glassware has been traditionally made through a process of manually shaping molten glass into vessels using air pressure and glassblowing tools. A glassblower manually gathers a gather of glass on the end of a blowing iron, an iron rod with a hollow bore, which is then rotated before the glassblower to evenly distribute the molten glass. Air is then forcibly blown through the hollow bore of the blowing iron into the molten glass gather by the glassblower's breath, causing the glass to expand. Additional glass can be added to the piece as it is rotated on the blowing iron. Various tools are used to manually shape the vessel, and it is then finished, often with additional decorative techniques. This traditional technique results in glassware with minor inconsistencies and air bubbles within the material, distinguishing it from machine-made glass which aims for precise consistency. The bubbles produced are a normal consequence of the manual blowing process.

- The GOURD wine decanter is made from high-hardness, lead-free potassium barium crystal materials that are fired at 1400 degrees Celsius. This gives the glass excellent light transmission properties while also producing a metallic ringing when struck. The glassblowing process involves firing above 1100 degrees Celsius along with insistence on a secondary annealing, in order to prevent cracking of the glass vessel body. Air bubbles naturally occurring in handblown glass are a normal characteristic present across all such handcrafted glassware. It is also an important visual feature distinguishing handmade glass from machine-made equivalents.

Care Instructions
- Glass decanter should be hand washed only. Avoid placing them in the dishwasher, microwave, or oven as the sudden temperature changes and vibration can cause breakage.
- Crystal glass is delicate and susceptible to damage from impact or stacking. When cleaning and storing the glasses, be gentle and leave space between each to prevent unnecessary contact.
- For daily use, rinse and thoroughly with a glass cloth immediately after washing to prevent water spots from forming during air drying.
