Handmade Crystal Glass Straws

Arlie Glass' Straw Design is Incredibly Delicate and Beautiful

As the abolition of plastic drinking utensils is well on its way, companies and independent designers are beginning to release engaging and chic straw designs that will put the traditional ones to shame. One Etsy store, in particular, takes this opportunity to produce a mesmerizing collection of handmade glass straws. Aside from its inherent transparency, the most striking feature of the artisanal product is the crystal cluster that adds a refined and chic twist to the straw design.

Arlie Pemberton — the owner and designer of the brand, uses an intricate free form flamework technique for her products. The elegant drinking utensil is made with 100% borosilicate glass that is dishwasher-friendly. Functional, aesthetically driven and borderline ethereal, the Arlie Glass straw designs are driving the style-forward movement with sustainability.
