In the past all our products were handmade, since 1965 we have more and more produced all items full-automatically due to the upcoming competition with low labour costs countries they needed to switch to automatical production to be able to compete and stay successful on the markets. In the past we had a few limited edition collections which were mouthblown: The Iosa Ghini collection (1993) http://www.ritzenhoff-ag.de/ritzenhoff/index.php?n0=produkte&n1=alle_kollektionen&n2=kollektionen&gruppe=12&lang=en&server=And the A. Mendini collection (1994): http://www.ritzenhoff-ag.de/ritzenhoff/index.php?n0=produkte&n1=alle_kollektionen&n2=kollektionen&gruppe=13&lang=en&server=We still have a few glassblowers in our company who are working on samples before starting the real production to introduce them to the customers.Furthermore they are producing special oversize glasses 2 l goblets for example for tournaments, pubs, hotels and taverns.Beside the glass, we also have our own graphic dept. and decal production. Lots of the glass decorations are printed directly on the glass if higher quantities are needed, but for smaller orders or especially for our design range the decals are hand decorated. So we are the only company who could offer everything out of one hand: from the first drawings of a new exclusive glass shape over the production to the decoration of the glass.
