Whiskey Cube glass - uran

Product detailed description

​

This exceptional Whiskey Cube glass by Czech artist and designer Lukáš Houdek is a sculptural object that bridges architecture and fine glassmaking. Inspired by the minimalist rigor of Adolf Loos and Le Corbusier, it features a powerful cubic form softened with refined hand-engraved detailing—each piece is made by hand, making it subtly unique.

The glass is crafted from uranium glass—a material historically prized for its distinctive glow under UV light and delicate lime-green hue. Today, uranium glass is rare and coveted by collectors for its aesthetic and nostalgic qualities, adding both visual intrigue and historic reference to this design object.

Produced in a limited edition, each glass is individually blown and engraved by artisans at HG ATELIER DESIGN in the Czech Republic. Whether used for sipping whiskey or displayed as a collectible piece, this object embodies craftsmanship, heritage, and playful artistic sensibility.

About the designer: Lukáš Houdek graduated from the Academy of Arts, Architecture & Design in Prague. He co-runs HG ATELIER DESIGN with Filip Houdek. His work spans design and fine art, often involving traditional materials, pop-cultural references, and a strong sense of humor.
