Bee Pressed Glass Tall Carafe by La Rochère

A narrow waist, flared neck and embossed bees give this tall carafe its distinct silhouette. Made in France, the clear glass offers a handle-free way to bring 34 fluid ounces of water or another cool beverage to the table.

“With a handle-free carafe, I look for a dry, comfortable place to take hold before pouring. The narrow waist gives this tall form a clear point of attention.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

Dishwasher safe; use the top rack on a gentle cycle and leave space between rims and stems. Use mild detergent, or hand wash with warm water and a soft sponge. For mineral spots, rinse briefly with warm water and a little white vinegar, then rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid sudden temperature changes. Microwave use is limited to brief reheating, up to 90 seconds; do not use boiling liquids or take glass directly between hot and cold conditions. Store with rims protected from knocks. Clean the narrow interior with a soft bottle brush where it fits without force, then drain and dry fully before storage.

Maker / Heritage

La Rochère has worked glass in the Haute-Saône region of France since 1475. In its pressed-glass collections, a two-part mold forms the relief patterns and leaves the fine seam that is part of their recognizable character. The pieces cool gradually in an annealing oven before being inspected by hand for clarity, balance and consistency. That combination of a long-established glassworks and a practical approach to manufacture gives its tableware a particular appeal: decoration formed into the object itself, designed to take part in daily meals rather than remain behind a cabinet door.
