We’ve channeled the earthy spirit of Burlington in our collection of freehand pinch-pot designs. Each piece is alive with mottled, tactile uniqueness. A soft neutral Bluff glaze is applied with an artistic drip technique along the edges – making each piece truly one of a kind. 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.
