Crafted by Hand. Perfected by Heritage.

At RIEDEL, every handmade and finished-by-hand glass is shaped, to one extent or the other, by skilled hands and centuries of tradition at our Kufstein Glassworks. From the first breath of molten crystal to the final finishing touch, our artisans guide each piece with precision and care—ensuring no two are ever exactly alike. 

This is more than craftsmanship—it’s the soul of RIEDEL, expressed in crystal. 

Since 1756, the Riedel family has redefined glassmaking. Today, 11 generations later, our name is synonymous with excellence in wine enjoyment. From our first varietal-specific shapes to our groundbreaking collections, every handmade RIEDEL glass reflects our unwavering commitment to form, function, and beauty. 

And behind every handmade and hand-finished glass lies the heartbeat of Kufstein: our master glassblowers. 

These artisans are more than craftsmen—they’re custodians of a rare and noble tradition. Trained for years under the watchful eyes of seasoned experts, they learn to listen to the breath of the furnace, to sense the right moment, and to shape each piece with precision and grace. It’s a skill passed not through books, but through experience—generation to generation, hand to hand. 

Every handmade RIEDEL glass is touched by this heritage. Whether mouth-blown or finished by hand, the result is a work of art: subtly unique, delicately balanced, and designed for performance. The hands that create them don’t just shape glass—they shape the way the world experiences wine.
