BELO Stemless Glasses by Frederike Martens for blomus

BELO Stemless Glasses by Frederike Martens for blomus — Mouth-blown 9.5 fl oz tumblers with a tapered shape, sold in sets of four in Clear, Smoke or Coffee.

Part of BELO, Frederike Martens’ mouth-blown glassware for the German design house blomus.

The Design Story

Take the stem off a BELO wine glass and this is what remains: the same tapered bowl, standing on its own base. Martens, born in 1987, trained in Halle, Germany, as an industrial designer focused on glass and ceramics, which makes BELO home ground for her. Her work looks for balance: quiet forms, lasting colors, materials allowed to show what they are.

BELO is blown by mouth, one piece at a time, into a tapered tulip silhouette: a wide, low shoulder that narrows to a fine cut-and-polished rim. Look closely and you may find a flow line or a pinpoint bubble, the signature of handmade glass. It comes in Clear and in two tints, Smoke (a smoky gray) and Coffee (a warm brown); on stemware the tint stops at the bowl, and stem and foot stay clear.

Why You’ll Love It

It is the BELO glass you will use every day. The wide base sits steady, and the taper fits the hand. It goes from water at lunch to wine on the terrace. Four tinted tumblers bring color to a table of pale dishes.

Made for Real Life

Dishwasher safe, according to blomus. Our advice: give handmade glass room on the top rack or wash it by hand, and dry with a lint-free cloth. Because each piece is blown by hand, small flow lines, tiny bubbles and slight variations in thickness and tint are normal. Pairs well with the table carafe, spritz glasses, red wine stems.

Where It Shines

It looks at home beside every plate as a water glass, on a terrace with white wine, on a nightstand, or with a whisky by the fire.

Questions We Hear Most

Can BELO stemless glasses be used for wine?

Yes. The shape is the BELO wine bowl without its stem, so it suits wine as well as water.

Are BELO stemless glasses good for everyday use?

Yes, they are the everyday piece of the collection and are dishwasher safe.

Do BELO stemless glasses match the BELO carafe?

Yes, the carafe is blown from the same glass, so a carafe and four glasses make a set.

Why can the BELO stemless glasses vary slightly from piece to piece?

BELO is mouth-blown, so fine flow lines, tiny bubbles and small shifts in thickness or tint are normal and part of its character.

Will the BELO stemless glasses suit a modern table?

Yes. The angular tulip outline and thin rim sit well with minimalist, Scandinavian and contemporary settings, and soften a rustic one.

When will my BELO stemless glasses leave the warehouse?

In-stock orders usually leave within 2–3 business days.

Why We Love It

Handmade glass with a sharp, modern outline: BELO makes an ordinary pour feel like an occasion. From a small town in Germany’s old steel region, the Blome family has gone from bicycle parts (1921) to metal gifts (1961) to the design label blomus (2000), still family-run in its fourth generation. LoftModern is an authorized blomus retailer.
