This beautiful St. Frank coupe carries a rich history, reflecting the evolution of Mexican glassmaking. While pre-Hispanic times saw glassware crafted from volcanic obsidian, the Spanish introduced clear handblown glass in the 16th century, with the industry flourishing first in Puebla. This particular piece was handblown in a remote town in the neighboring state of Hidalgo, where an entire community collaborates in a family-owned factory established three decades ago. Each coupe is a testament to collective artistry, passed from one maestro to the next until perfected.
