A collection with suspended hand-blown charms, inspired by historical fine glassware found in museum collections. Wine glass, champagne coupe, water tumbler. Each charm formed in flame during blowing: integrated permanently, mobile yet inseparable.
Hand-blown in Italy.
A hand-blown coupe with an integrated suspended charm. Part of the SOSPESA collection, which reinterprets historical fine glassware with contemporary intent.
The teardrop-shaped charm is formed in flame during the blowing process and integrated permanently into the piece: mobile yet inseparable, creating a delicate sound when the glass is held or set down. The base retains the subtle irregularities and marks of hand-forming, making each piece unique
Where historical glass emphasized symmetry, Sospesa makes a contemporary gesture: asymmetry as signature of individuality. Expertly handcrafted in Italy by skilled master glassblowers using premium borosilicate glass and flameworking technique.
SOSPESA COUPE pairs perfectly with the SOSPESA WINE GLASS and TUMBLER for a complete glassware set.

ON MAKING THESE OBJECTS
Agustina Bottoni is a Milan-based designer working in collaboration with a network of local artisans. Each piece is made by hand, one at a time.
She considers objects as good companions — carriers of identity and memory, made to last.
A quiet challenge to the logic of mass production.
