Frozen in winter, flowing in summer – our Echo Lake Collection is inspired by the constantly changing rivers, streams and waterways of Vermont. In a bold interpretation of the craft, master glassblowers nimbly wrap fine strands of glass around the bottom third of a cylindrical silhouette to form the unique, natural texture of this decanter. At Simon Pearce, fine glassware is still hand-blown in the traditional style. Simon Pearce opened his first glassblowing shop in 1971 in Kilkenny, Ireland. Ten years later, the factory was moved to Quechee, Vermont, where it remains today. The Ottauquechee River provides clean, hydroelectric power for the facility. All Simon Pearce items are proudly made in the U.S.A.
