Company Background / History

Our intimate connection with the art of glass making commenced in Zwiesel in 1872, when we laid down our first melting furnace. Since then, our success has been fuelled by the marriage of traditional skills handed down through the generations, a constant desire to enhance the materials and technologies we work with and our sheer fascination for glass. Molten glass, while it can be defined as a product of silica, lime, soda and other ingredients; is in fact a crucible which for us is full of potential.

Shaping glass out of this mixture requires imagination, concentration, and the patience of controlled passion. Our attachment to the Bavarian Forest, underlines our dedication to the source from which we draw this special, creative patience, and it has also become a declaration of our dedication to the people we work with. We believe, our success as an owner inspired company, which has gained recognition throughout the world for the beauty and high quality of its products, is the proof of our commitment to marry tradition and imagination to technology As a specialist manufacturer of drinking glasses,we develop all of our creations in cooperation with experts drawn from hotels, bars and restaurants, such as sommeliers, leading chefs and cocktail experts.

We do this to ensure, every possible aspect, from ergonomics to aesthetics, is taken into consideration. Our most recent breakthrough is the creation of Tritan® titanium crystal glass. Internationally patended-the brilliant, dishwasher and break resistant glass of the professional. A tangible demonstration of our commitment to excellence in advanced production. Yet by introducing the Zwiesel 1872 brand, we are also underlining our continuing commitment to the exquisite traditional art of mouth-blown crystal. In this publication we intend to not only reveal our past but also to shed light on our forthcoming developments. And above all, we hope we will be able to let our passion for glass inspire your imagination!
