Passió pel vidre. 100 anys de Cristalleries de Mataró, una cooperativa singular

We present you a small sample of the artisan glass from the Mataró glass oven, Cristalleries Societat Cooperativa. Pieces made by professional glaziers in the glass industry who basically made light bulbs and thermometers, but who were also amateurs as artisans. From the beginning of the cooperative, by tradition and moved by their passion for glass, the holidays were going to make crafts, with traditional tools, passed from generation to generation, doing an unpaid day to give life to your creativity.

Water Jug'24


Water jug year 2024 - Design Javier Mariscal
“The Càntir (water jug) is a refrigerator without batteries. It is an invention that is several thousand years old. It is portable and can be refilled; it is fragile and if handled carelessly it will break; it is shared with friends and, above all, it is humble, almost anonymous. In the summer heat, it sweats water like you. In the shade of a fig tree, the cool water from it is a jewel".
