SECOND QUALITY
Named for a quaint small town in Windsor county, Weston offers a further iteration on the squared-off angles of our signature Woodbury Collection, with a focus on angular-yet-fluid rectangular silhouettes. Weston pieces speak in the vernacular of Vermont buildings, from structural barns to towering silos. A testament to the abilities of our glassblowers, brilliant glass is folded into classic, organic shapes, with the flared pieces in the line requiring extra finesse to build.
Seconds are structurally sound and functional, but may include bubbles, surface marks, or a slight wobble from the handmade process. Appearance may vary from the image shown.

What Makes a Second?
Lines or impressions left by molds and hand tools—visible traces of the process that shapes each piece.
Gentle differences in shape or proportion, including uneven rims or dimensions beyond our usual tolerances.
Occasional larger bubbles or clustered air pockets captured during the molten process.
Swirls or fragments of unmelted materials from the furnace environment.
I bought 6 of these vases for use in a baby shower. I am filling them with tulips and initially thought I would give them away as party favors. But, they are just too pretty.
I will share with my daughter in-law so I can continue to use them for other events.
The seconds are high quality, and any imperfections are not really discernable. Great value. Especially for vases.
I just received this vase, and it is gorgeous! It arrived in just a few days and was packaged very nicely. Such a beautiful shape and as a second, it has a very tiny bubble
that actually makes is more hand made looking. I can’t wait to give it as a Christmas present!

Seconds are fully functional pieces that don’t meet our strict visual standards. Because every item is made by hand, small variations naturally occur throughout the making process. Some seconds reflect the learning curve of new artisans or the refinement of a new design, while others simply fall outside our tolerance guidelines. When this happens, the piece is designated as a second and offered at a reduced price.
Seconds are typically offered at 10%–30% off the original price, depending on the piece.
Seconds may include subtle differences in shape, size, or finish. Common variations can include:
1. Slight dimensional differences beyond our tolerance range, typically ⅛"– ½".
2. Small bubbles within the glass.
3. A gentle wobble that does not affect stability.
4. Occasional stones or cords in the glass, which reflect the molten material and furnace environment.
These variations are visual in nature and part of the handmade process. Pieces that are unsafe, sharp, or unstable are never offered as seconds.
No. Because seconds celebrate variation, each piece is unique and may differ from the product photography shown. That individuality is part of what makes seconds special.
No. All seconds are final sale.
Seconds are not eligible for gift boxing or wrapping. However, you may contact our Customer Care team to purchase a gift box separately if available. Gift messages may still be added at checkout.
