It can be said that everything related to artistic glassmaking in the Balearic Islands is owed to Gordiola. The historical and artistic heritage left by the previous seven generations has endured over time and demonstrates its importance. Their unique blown glass pieces, shaped by the ingenuity and inspiration of artisans and master glassmakers, give their works a particular charm. Gordiola has a personal and distinctive touch, thanks to the originality of the shapes and colours of their pieces.
