ZARA 50 Glass Tumblers
View textCommissioned to mark ZARA’s 50th anniversary, these beautifully vivid glass tumblers showcase Marc’s signature preoccupation with saturated colour and purity of form. With a high-gloss opacity and vibrant pigment flowing from softened edge-to-edge, the glasses—sold in matching-colour sets in 3 sizes—were produced through traditional hand-blown processes by artisans in La Granja, one of Spain’s most established glassmaking workshops. Reflecting Marc’s vision for tethering industrial design to craft heritage techniques, the limited-edition collection offers a playful, weighty permanence and alluring presence.
‘I was compelled to toy with material limits and expectations. These luminous glass tumblers exploit colour as a solid entity: we assume glass will carry a degree of translucence, but here the opposite is true. The result is a joyful and functional collection; pops of colour on your kitchen table.’ — Marc Newson
The profits from this limited-edition collection will be donated to Women’s Earth Alliance, a non-profit organisation with a mission to protect our environment by empowering women’s leadership.
