Syrian Glass Ornaments
Master glassworkers in Syria use a generations-old tradition to craft our recycled glass baubles and hanging vases. Artisans in Damascus developed the skilful method that is used today, where air is blown into molten glass with a slender pipe, creating a bubble which is manipulated into delicate shapes. Featuring subtle warps, marks and bubbles, each piece is unique.
Made from recycled glass, hand-blown by master glass blowers in Syria, using an ancient and ancestral skill that has been passed down through many generations. Slight warps, marks and air bubbles make each piece unique and the colour may vary. Set of six with three large and three small baubles, suspended from jute string.

Reviews from Our Customers
The Making of Our Syrian Glass Ornaments
Our recycled glass baubles and hanging vases are the product of a generations-old tradition. TOAST is proud to have a longstanding relationship with master glassworkers in Syria, a country with a rich history of the craft. While versions of the technique can be traced back to ancient Egypt, it was artisans in Damascus who developed the skilful method that is used today, evolving glass blowing into an established practice.
Unlike glassware formed with moulds, blown glass has a light and transparent feel. Air is blown into molten glass with a long and slender pipe, creating a bubble which can then be manipulated into delicate teardrop and spherical shapes. The resulting objects often feature subtle warps, marks and bubbles, making each piece unique.
