More than just a container, the Ichendorf Savannah Jug with Giraffe and Baobab becomes a miniature stage where glass tells a story. Designed by Alessandra Baldereschi, this creative Ichendorf jug from the Savannah collection features a delicate flame-worked giraffe figurine accompanied by the iconic silhouette of a baobab tree inside its crystal-clear body. Handmade in borosilicate glass, it balances resistance, transparency, and poetic detail, bringing both function and imagination to the table.
The art of lampworking
Each
Ichendorf jug is shaped by skilled artisans using traditional lampworking techniques. This meticulous process gives life to the miniature giraffe and baobab, ensuring every detail is unique. The glass, thin yet resistant, maintains its brilliance over time and is dishwasher safe at low temperatures (40 °C/104 °F recommended). What could be a simple jug becomes instead a collectible piece of storytelling glassware.
Design that animates daily life
This
Baldereschi x Ichendorf’s design transforms drinking water, serving fresh juice, or pouring wine into an imaginative experience. The giraffe, elegant and elongated, paired with the majestic baobab, evokes the vast landscapes of Africa, turning the act of pouring into a moment of discovery. This jug is not just for serving: it is a decorative accent that draws attention whether used daily or during special occasions.
Part of the Savannah collection
The jug integrates perfectly with other pieces from the
Ichendorf Savannah series, as well as with the
Animal Farm collection,
Marine Garden collection, and
Botanica collection. Together they form a cohesive table setting where every object becomes a character, enriching convivial rituals with a sense of humor and sophistication.
A collectible treasure
The
Savannah Jug with Giraffe and Baobab appeals to collectors, design lovers, and anyone who values objects that combine artistry with function. As a gift, it embodies refinement and imagination, offering not only practical use but also a story preserved in glass: a story of nature, craftsmanship, and playful elegance.
