A dopamine jolt of colourful glass to brighten any table.

As summer rolls on and we gather around the table on relaxed and balmy days, reaching for a cheerful glass tumbler to refill make perfect sense.

Perhaps that’s why there’s been a real buzz around unique drinking vessels in playful hues fright now.

Blown glass in fresh uplifting shades and patterns and ‘spatter’ or confetti glass pieces are particularly desirable.

Spatter glass (sometimes referred to as splatter or confetti glass) is a type of decorative glass known for its colorful and mottled appearance.

It is made by applying small fragments of coloured glass (known as frit) onto the surface of a base layer of molten glass. The glass is then reheated and manipulated, fusing the coloured fragments into the surface. The process creates a speckled, spattered, or confetti-like effect.

Kiwi Kate Mitchell is one glass artist gaining significant popularity for her stylish creations. Her collections of colourful tumblers as well as oil decanters, carafes, and plates are frequent sell-outs, soon after each release is listed.

Whangarei’s Grinter Glass, owned by Keith Grinter, and Matthew Hall Glass are other companies known for their beautiful and colourful tumblers.
