From its colorful stems to its bold visual identity, RIEDEL Fatto a Mano is a celebration of craftsmanship in every detail. Dive into its story and discover the full range of pieces that make up this modern classic.

The Legacy Behind the Look

Fatto a Mano—Italian for “made by hand”—pays tribute to traditional glass artistry while standing tall as one of RIEDEL’s most forward-thinking collections. Launched in 2017, it was born from a desire to combine the centuries-old techniques of Venetian glassmaking with the precision of RIEDEL’s varietal-specific bowl shapes. 

Each piece in the collection is a masterpiece of collaboration: the stem is crafted using traditional handcraft methods, while the bowl is shaped by machine to ensure perfect consistency and performance. This hybrid approach gives every glass the soul of the artisan and the exacting standards of modern engineering.

What Makes RIEDEL Fatto a Mano So Special?

Colored Stems, Iconic Design 

The most distinguishing feature of the RIEDEL Fatto a Mano collection is its vividly colored stem. Inspired by the glassmaking traditions of Murano, each hue adds a sense of individuality and drama to the table. It's not just eye-catching—it’s also a practical way to personalize settings or tell glasses apart at a gathering. 

Finished-by-Hand Excellence 

Every glass in the RIEDEL Fatto a Mano collection is touched by skilled hands—shaped, refined, and perfected through years of artisanal knowledge. This careful attention to detail ensures that no two stems are identical, turning each one into a collectible work of art. 

Modern Luxury Meets Heritage 

In a world dominated by machine-made perfection, RIEDEL Fatto a Mano offers a rare blend of emotional connection and modern sophistication. It has become a favorite among design enthusiasts, sommeliers, and wine lovers who value craftsmanship as much as performance.
