The company has invested heavily in its machine production and has two systems of production lines that are capable of making approximately 91,000 pieces per day and 28 million glasses per year. The mesmerizing, whizzing, fire-breathing machines that blow 1500-degree non-lead crystal into molds, mechanically attaches the stems, laser-trims, and fire polishes the glasses for a final time before the glasses are inspected for any flaws. Imperfect glasses (approximately 30% on a good day) are destroyed, crushed and re-melted into the crystal mix, a process that helps improve the quality of the crystal itself. Interestingly, if there is not enough recycled crystal content added to the mix each day, additional recycled crystal will be added to perfect the recipe.
