This hand-blown glass is inspired by the glassware from the 17th century, which can be seen in many of the Rijksmuseum’s still lifes. It is made in the same way as it was then. The studs on the stem of the glass were not just there for decoration: they provided more grip for the greasy hands of the dinner companions.

A prunt is a small blob of glass fused to another piece of glass. Prunts are applied primarily as decoration, but also help provide a firm grip in the absence of a handle. Prunts may be impressed into decorative shapes, such as raspberries, blackberries, or lion’s heads.

Prunts are a common stylistic element in German glassware, such as the rummer and Berkemeyer styles of drinking glass.
