Terroir Triple Pillar Recycler (Tristan Hodges)

Terroir Glass — Triple Pillar Recycler by Tristan Hodges

Terroir Glass was founded by Tristan Hodges with a singular focus: applying the philosophy of terroir — the idea that the land, maker, and moment are all expressed in the final product — to American functional glass art. Hodges' work is known for its architectural precision, thoughtful form, and the kind of quiet confidence that comes from a glassblower who lets the piece speak for itself.

About This Piece

The Triple Pillar Recycler is a standout example of Hodges' design sensibility. Three structural pillars support the recycling chamber, creating a visually open, almost skeletal silhouette that still functions with fluid efficiency. Water travels through the recycling circuit in a continuous loop, delivering smooth, cooled pulls and exceptional flavor preservation.

Why Collectors Choose Terroir

Care & Handling

Clean regularly with 99% isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt to maintain clarity and flavor. Rinse thoroughly with warm water after each cleaning session. Store upright in a secure, padded location. Avoid abrupt temperature changes to protect the borosilicate glass from thermal shock.
