Inspired by the shells found on the beaches of idyllic French seaside towns, the Belle Isle collection reflects the allure and serenity of the ocean. The glasses are stable, sturdy, perfect for the whole family and shared moments overlooking the deep blue sea. Made in France, the pieces are fired at very high temperatures producing an exceptional quality glass that is crystal clear and durable. A pressure seam is sometimes visible, which is the mark left by opening the mould in which the glass is pressed. It is a characteristic of traditional French pressed machine glass.
