Working in close collaboration, the glasses are hand-cast in a single mould from amber borosilicate glass, its flat stem and squared foot follow Larcombe's original sketch, a shape her employer's machine-made process could never have produced. The bowl narrows almost imperceptibly from base to rim, a detail added to draw out the notes of a good wine. Sold as a set of two, it sits equally well on a table or alone on a shelf, the way Larcombe keeps her own favourite glass pieces at home. Produced in a limited run of 250 sets, it brings a fifty-year-old design into production for the first time, a collaboration between the designer who dreamed it and the maker who found a way to make it real.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe moment they both knew the design was right came when Larcombe picked up the very first sample glass and turned it over in her hand before she said a word.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“\u003cem\u003eI would hope it felt natural in people’s hands and that they could admire the simplicity\u003c\/em\u003e.” – Denise Larcombe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Balzac x Denise Larcombe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45814343368883,"sku":"MB77433","price":149.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0585\/0847\/6595\/files\/20260910_PHM_LIVING_COLLECTION_07crop3.jpg?v=1790897665"}],"url":"https:\/\/store.powerhouse.com.au\/collections\/drinkware.oembed","provider":"Powerhouse Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
