"A man's best friend"

Some loves are loud. A dog's love is steady - a tail thumping at the door, a head resting on your knee. This Red Heart Dog, handcrafted by Nobile Glassware using the traditional art of fused glass, holds that quiet devotion in warm fawn tones and a vibrant red heart.

Established in 1993, Nobile Glassware is a UK-based supplier of handmade glass and giftware, renowned for its in-house designed and exclusively manufactured collections - making each piece highly collectable and sought-after.

The intricate process begins by blending the finest raw materials and heating them to 2400°F (1315°C) until they transform into glass. The temperature is then carefully reduced so the molten glass becomes workable, allowing craftsmen to gather, blow, and shape it using techniques and tools that are centuries old, before pieces are slowly cooled in an annealer over hours or days. Slight variations in colour, size, or tiny bubbles are the hallmark of the maker's hand - a proof of authenticity.
