For many years, master glassblower Olaf Schönherr has been working with a technique that only a few have mastered. The assembly technique is particularly suitable for producing filigree drinking vessels and objects from different glass tubes. His champagne glass was created in the Lampenglasstudio of the European Museum of Modern Glass in Rödental.
