The Bouteille Carré Grand Dark Blue is a square glass carafe, mouth blown from recycled glass by the glassblowers of La Soufflerie in Paris. Its square shape fits neatly into a refrigerator door, and it works just as well as a vase for flowers and branches. Part of The Blue Moon Collection.

Volume: 140 cl
Dimensions: approx. W 10 cm / D 12 cm / H 25 cm
Colour comes from pigments added in the furnace, not from paint, so it will not fade.
Dishwasher resistant, but hand wash recommended to keep the glass clear and free of scratches.

A note on handmade glass
Every piece by La Soufflerie is blown freehand from recycled glass, and it shows. Forms can be slightly uneven or lean a little to one side, and sizes may vary by 1 to 2 cm from piece to piece. Air bubbles, small dark specks, traces of the original recycled glass, tooling marks and the pontil mark on the base are part of the material and of the making. Colour and surface may vary in intensity and texture, so no two pieces are ever the same, and the item you receive will differ from the one in the photos. These are not flawless, factory smooth objects but honest, hand made glass with character.

About the Artist / Designer / Brand

La Soufflerie – Hand-blown recycled glass – Bouteille Carré Grand – dark blue

La Soufflerie is a family run glass studio in Paris, founded in 2007 by Valentina and Sébastien Nobile to keep French glassblowing alive. Every object is made from mouth blown recycled glass, from drinking glasses to vases and the square glass carafe in deep blue. For The Blue Moon Collection, Volta brings a selection of their pieces to Vienna.

La Soufflerie began as a non-profit association that returned its proceeds to the glassblowers, and its first pieces were vases for Parisian florists. Today the studio’s master glassblowers still shape each object on the blowpipe with traditional tools, using only recycled glass. Colour is added as pigment in the furnace rather than painted on, so it does not fade with use. Small bubbles and slight differences in form are part of the material and of French glassblowing as a centuries old craft. In 2022 La Soufflerie opened its own shop in the Latin Quarter of Paris. Within The Blue Moon Collection, each square glass carafe is one of a kind.
