AZ-Design

Led by Aleš Zvěřina, this renowned glass studio has been expertly combining traditional craftsmanship with the latest design trends since 1997. As a leading maker of fine lead and lead-free crystal, the company handles demanding projects from initial design all the way through to precisely executed indoor and outdoor installations, luxury trophies, and art sculptures.

Over more than a quarter of a century, the firm has made its name by working with internationally acclaimed artists and state-of-the-art equipment and using a wide range of techniques, from glassblowing and sandblasting to decorating with precious metals. The studio’s philosophy rests on uncompromising quality and a gift for giving glass a character all its own, whether through traditional handcraft or innovative design features made to order for the most discerning of clients.

A visit to the workshops gives you an exclusive glimpse into the world of glass decoration. With Aleš Zvěřina as your guide, watch as the craftsmen cut both traditional and modern pieces, or admire Zlata Zvěřinová’s delicate painting and enamelling. And to round off the experience, there’s a tour of the extensive showroom, which charts the studio’s 29-year history and displays the full range of distinctive pieces that made its name at home and abroad.
