At Ornamental by Lameice, every piece is a story, an adventure in craftsmanship and color that deserves the utmost care. As the proud custodian of one of our glass treasures, you are entrusted with preserving the magic they bring. The following is your guide to ensuring these carefully crafted masterpieces continue to shine as brightly as the day they were born in the hands of our artisans.

Your new glassware is a delicate, and handcrafted, each piece is as unique as the person holding it. While our glass is strong, we advise handling it with the gentleness reserved for the most cherished of items. Treat it like a fragile secret and avoid exposing it to sudden temperature changes or rough surfaces.

Cleaning, like love, should always be done gently. While our pieces are heat-resistant and technically dishwasher-safe, we recommend a more intimate approach: hand-washing with mild dish soap and warm water. Use a soft cloth or sponge—nothing too abrasive. Think of it as a tender caress rather than a scrub.

To preserve the gleaming surfaces of your glass treasures, avoid abrasive materials like harsh scrubbers. These could dull the smooth, elegant finish that is the hallmark of our designs. Consider it a small price to pay for the longevity of beauty.

When not in use, let your glassware rest in comfort, far from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Store it in a secure, dry place, ideally nestled in soft surroundings. A cushioned display case or velvet-lined drawer would do splendidly—think of it as a small sanctuary for your pieces. After all, they deserve a good night’s rest.

As the years pass, your pieces may develop a patina, particularly if they’ve been lovingly used to hold the occasional cocktail or serve a delicious meal. This gradual aging process is simply part of their charm and character, much like a well-worn leather suitcase that tells a story of travels far and wide. Embrace this gentle transformation, it’s a testament to the life your glassware has led.

Behind each piece of Ornamental by Lameice glassware lies the artistry of the glassblower family, artisans from the tranquil village of Jaba. Each item is carefully mouth-blown without the use of molds, ensuring that no two pieces are ever quite the same. In essence, they are all one-of-a-kind creations, shaped by the hands of artisans whose skill is matched only by their passion.

We work exclusively with high-quality borosilicate glass, known for its remarkable heat resistance and durability. This special glass allows each piece to endure the trials of time and use, all while maintaining its exceptional elegance and charm.

Our design process is a dance between modern technology and ancient artistry. It begins with sketches and 3D designs that are transformed into tangible glass wonders in the workshop. Each piece is an experiment, a test of imagination and precision, refined until it perfectly balances form and function.

Your Ornamental by Lameice piece is a carefully crafted chapter in a larger, ongoing story. It represents artistry, tradition, and the harmonious blend of light, color, and form. It’s an heirloom in the making, waiting to be passed down through generations. By following these simple care tips, you’ll help ensure that your piece not only survives, but thrives, leaving behind its own legacy.

Thank you for choosing to be part of this journey. Your piece is now a small, but important, part of a world of beauty and craftsmanship.
