All right... the first thing you're gonna want to know is, where the heck did they get that name? Peàn Doubulyu Glass?

Peàn Doubulyu is a partnership started in 1981 by Elizabeth Pannell and James Watkins. If you pronounce the initials of their last names (P&W), you'll also be pronouncing the name of their company. Get it? P&W...

Both Liz and Jim are graduates of the Rhode Island School of Design and they are one creative pair. Together, they design and create some of the most funky and interesting glassware you'll ever find. All of it is functional. All of it is highly decorative with bold contrasting colors and undulating, textured forms. The result is a combination of visual and tactile elements which Watkins refers to as “Nouvelle Mexican”. Hmmm...

All styles are available in combinations of eight colors; yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, teal, lime and blue. All glass tumblers are dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing goblets and larger pieces.

We'll admit that the choices Pean Doubulyu offers in all their styles can be quite confusing, so, don't hesitate to give Marcia a call or drop her an email with your questions.
