Pure glass art

The twisted neck of the bottle consists of 4 thin smooth glass tubes on the outside and a slightly thicker tube on the inside. This appears square. The four outer tubes sit about 1 cm from the inside on the lower onion-shaped glass body. They rotate around the middle strand and form a four-strand spiral with a thin glass connection from each 'corner' to the outer tube. The opening of the artfully crafted bottle neck forms a triangular shape in the tap. The vessel is an exception both optically and acoustically.

A piece of cultural history

The Glucker bottle was first mentioned in writing in 1220 in the Willehalm epic in Germany. For more than a thousand years the Kuttrolf was a mass-produced glass vessel. Until the 17th century, the hut people produced this bottle in so-called forest glassworks. All in all, the production is documented until the 19th century. Potash gives the forest glass its green colour. Only the Wolhabenden could afford glass. The clergy ran their own glassworks.
