4x Antoni Barcelona Glasses in your choice of style & color
When I saw the joke picture, I immediately thought of this music video, a classic of surreality-ness. Surrealishness. Whatever. Just watch it, even if you mute it.
@gobnu if it’s blown glass and not borosilicate blown glass, then I could see why it’s hand wash only. The mix of different glass types, as indicated by the color changes and this price range, would suggest that the glass can’t take the rapid heat changes in the dishwasher cycle.
Yes it is possible to have blown glass that’s dishwasher safe, but highly dependent on the type of glass used and if the glass blower knows how to use that style of glass. For example: someone who is certified to do scientific glassware would be able to do it no problem.
I know all this because I am a chemist who was taught to blow glass by a scientific glass blower. Is my glassware dishwasher safe? Usually when I have the correct setup and it’s a new creation. Is the person who trained me in the basics? Every damned time without fail if it’s a new one or a complex repair.
@jerminate@lisagd@macromeh Squirrels have stopped being a menace to my pecans since the raptor population increased in my neighborhood. I might actually harvest a few this year.
@corishnakov I bought the entire blue collection, as a wedding gift, and they came in a fancy signed gift box. Also I have a complete sets of Reidel Veloce & Performance glassware, Reidel is dishwasher safe as long as there isn’t any other dishes in the Dishwasher . The stems on the Barcelona Glassware is very thin & fragile, like my Reidel’s hand washing is the only way to go.
Remember hold the glass by Bowl and not by the Stem while washing.
Best…
Damnit! I totally fell asleep last night and now the stemless are sold out. I guess that’s a sign that I don’t need them. I hand wash almost everything anyway. I got a set of the whiskey/rocks glasses last time round and I loved them. I just have a crazy short dog with an insanely strong tail and she knocks over all the stemmed things. Such is life!
Hey friend!!! Sorry I’ve been so MIA. I can’t wait to get the murder shed knocked down and rebuilt so I can start my business back properly again. I’m struggling to keep my head above water. I’m seriously stressing about spring when the kids have multiple sports. I need to look back at which veggie soup recipe you wanted. I don’t typically write things down when I cook so I’m at a loss at the moment.
@daltonspdx@sillyheathen Hmmm! Maybe he’s buying you something nice!
I’ll try to find a photo of the veggie soup. Just an explanation of what makes it look so creamy and rich would suffice…
Good luck with the shed; maybe you’ll have to wait till you’re an empty nester to get back full steam into making things, but the kids are worth it!

Will these hold a good margarita?
@yakkoTDI Yes, the larger ones will, of course, if you must. And they will also hold a terrible margarita. (These exist, Inquire at own risk.)
I remember these, according to the description they’re both “mouth-blown” and “hand-blown”.
@awk To paraphrase a “Harry met Sally” quote:
“I’ll have what HE’S having”!!
Hic’
Ah, Dean Martin’s favorite glass (& drink!!), the Martini!!
You expect people who drink to choose from this many different items?
@werehatrack If they drink like I drank (in my drinking days) they’d need one of each! No need to make choices! Lol
Déjà booze
When I saw the joke picture, I immediately thought of this music video, a classic of surreality-ness. Surrealishness. Whatever. Just watch it, even if you mute it.
@xobzoo Surreality?
@xobzoo Good one.
Too expensive. I need the cheap glasses I can throw into the fireplace when done.
@phendrick They’ve got the water glasses that are hand blown by Juan Carlos Salazar (and his family) in Guadalajara Mexico for only $11 at One World Bazaar. They sure do look the same!

I hope your profit margin is 9000%, because no one should be buying these.
Edit: I don’t know an Antoni. But, I am pretty sure his last name is not Barcelona. And this is thrift-store junk.
@KNmeh7 How dare you?!
A 29 ounce wine glass? That’s a whole bottle of wine. With enough room left so as not to spill it.
"I swear honey. I only had 2 glasses of wine. <hic>
Hand wash only? And for that reason, I’m out.
@gobnu if it’s blown glass and not borosilicate blown glass, then I could see why it’s hand wash only. The mix of different glass types, as indicated by the color changes and this price range, would suggest that the glass can’t take the rapid heat changes in the dishwasher cycle.

We got the blue wine glasses last time, and we always get compliments on them! I’m ordering 2 more sets, as we’ve already broken one…
/giphy poised-grody-squirrel
@jerminate Sadist that I am, I love watching squirrels get spun around like they’re on an amusement park ride.
@jerminate @lisagd It’s the little joys in life, isn’t it? I was gonna say, he doesn’t look very poised!
@jerminate @lisagd
Squirrels: Rats 2.0, clearly created for our amusement.
@jerminate @lisagd @macromeh Squirrels have stopped being a menace to my pecans since the raptor population increased in my neighborhood. I might actually harvest a few this year.
@jerminate @lisagd @werehatrack
Squirrels? Let me know if you need any recipes.
@jerminate @macromeh @werehatrack The 1970s edition of The Joy of Cooking has a bunch of squirrel and other, uh, wildlife recipes.
I’m down to my last wine glass, so I’m in for the blue ones.
/giphy exciting-unhelpful-chimpanzee
@lisagd Looks like you’re getting purple!
@lisagd It is Antoni Barcelona!!! Look at the art!
@KNmeh7 That chimp copied my painting!
Recast a defect as a feature.
That’s some top notch marketing right there, bro.
Could anyone tell me whether or not these come in a gift box?
@corishnakov @troy I’m assuming they don’t, but I’ve flagged someone who should be able to answer that.
@troy @werehatrack Sweet, thanks!
@corishnakov Nope, these don’t come in gift boxes
@corishnakov I bought the entire blue collection, as a wedding gift, and they came in a fancy signed gift box. Also I have a complete sets of Reidel Veloce & Performance glassware, Reidel is dishwasher safe as long as there isn’t any other dishes in the Dishwasher . The stems on the Barcelona Glassware is very thin & fragile, like my Reidel’s hand washing is the only way to go.
Remember hold the glass by Bowl and not by the Stem while washing.

In for one each of the blue and red stemless.

You lost me at “hand wash only”
Damnit! I totally fell asleep last night and now the stemless are sold out. I guess that’s a sign that I don’t need them. I hand wash almost everything anyway. I got a set of the whiskey/rocks glasses last time round and I loved them. I just have a crazy short dog with an insanely strong tail and she knocks over all the stemmed things. Such is life!
@sillyheathen I don’t think wine is good for dogs. You might want to try water in a bowl, my dog does pretty well with that set up.
/giphy big-itchy-hydrogen
worth it just for the order name. I caved and bought water glasses because they hold wine and are stemless.
@sillyheathen
I think those are the prettiest, anyway.

My order just got cancelled??
I want more-to complete a set, how can I get them?
OMG, most gorgeous glassware EVER!
Showed them to friends who came over last night, and they admired them so much, wanted to know how to get them and how much…
@joangast1
They have some on Sidedeal.
I’m not a fan of tableware with designs; I always worry “is this old enough to be treated with lead”?
Also, wow this went fast.
