The Float Large Tea Lantern by Molo

Float - a premium line of hand-made glassware / barware appropriate for hot or cold use.

Master glassblowers in the Czech Republic, working with specialized lathes, torches and burners, handcraft float glassware, literally one piece at at time. float is made solely from the finest German borosilicate glass, an extremely pure and chemically inert material that is heat resistant, unlike other types of glass. The innovative design of float glassware is beautiful and highly functional. The unique suspended bowl shape insulates the hand from the liquid inside the glass, and also serves to elevate condensation away from a table's surface, making the use of a coaster unnecessary.

Use for hot tea, cold tea, as a pitcher for lemonade, sangria, as a decanter for red wine...

“The tea lantern by Todd MacAllen and Stephanie Forsythe is clearly a model of product design in the great tradition of Mies and Jacobsen. The Canadian designers have used latest glass technology to create a transparent teapot with an integral vacuum jacket, which conserves heat and allows the simple cylinder to be picked up by hand.”
