Crackle is a mouth-blown series with an organic and distinctive expression. In manufacturing, a new technology is used where the hot glass is cooled in ice-cold water. In the meeting between hot and cold, a crackled surface is created which also gave the series its name, Crackle. The beautiful parts of the series invite to be served out and stored in. Each part of the series is beautiful on its own, but the different parts also do very well together as a group.
