STORIES DESIGN GIFT AND SOUVENIRS, LJUBLJANA: The Primeval Expressions collection of glasses for water and spirits is a superb, completely Slovenian handmade product, designed by Mateja Krašovec Pogorelčnik. The crystal and fine crystal glass is made by Steklarna Rogaška, a globally recognised traditional crystal producer.
The glass is complimented and softened by the delicately shaped base made from 2.5 million year old petrified wood, or ksilit, a wonderful natural material carefully obtained by Premogovnik Velenje from waste sections of mined beds. The uniform mellowness of the base accentuates the beauty of the once living structure of tree rings preserved through millions of years.
Orders by phone are accepted Mon-Fri from 07:00 to 15:00. Some items are also available at the Rogaška shop on Mestni Trg in Ljubljana's old town.
