What makes this little glass so special? It comes from Verrerie de Biot, a glassworks founded in the sunny south of France back in 1956 by Eloi Monod. They quickly became known for their incredibly distinctive "bubble" or "mottled" glass – that lovely texture you see here, created by intentionally trapping air in the molten glass. This technique, which made BIOT pieces so recognizable and loved throughout the mid to late 20th century, gives each glass its own unique character.
