From the initial stone-cutting to the final polish, each beautiful, durable 100% natural marble design from India’s Stonemen is handcrafted – start to finish, and features inherently unique textural variations. Marble’s insulation properties make it a solid way to protect wood surfaces from condensation and keep wine nice and chilled. 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.
