LV Facade Tumblers
A collection of hand-cut crystal tumblers, each featuring patterns inspired by the iconic facades of Louis Vuitton stores and buildings worldwide.
Using a shape that falls between a tumbler and a highball glass, suitable for both water and cocktails or liquor, we adapted each of the facade patterns to the intricate technique of crystal wheel-cutting.
From an initial drafting of over 20 patterns, we selected the five most impactful and recognizable designs, working with various glassmakers in Italy to prototype them on actual glasses.
In addition to the clear crystal versions, each design was also adapted to the intricate art of double-cased cutting, featuring an outer layer in color—shown here in blue.
The tumblers reflect Louis Vuitton's commitment to craftsmanship and innovative design, with each piece capturing the essence of the brand’s rich architectural identity.
