Since 1475, the glassworks of La Rochere has been located in an Haute-Saone Village, where both machined and mouth-blown glass are produced. The Bee is the iconic motif of the French empire. At this consercration, Napoleon wore a coat embroidered with bees, symbolizing industrious zeal and hard work. In 457, at the time of the Merovingian dynasty, Childeric, the father of Clovis, was buried with 300 bees of gold. Bees were then the symbol of immortality and resurrection.

Beautiful
These are absolutely gorgeous. Will highly recommend.
Dont hold much liquid
They are solid and made of thick glass but dont hold much.
Lovely sturdy glasses
Really lovely sturdy, heavy glasses that wont be knocked over easily. Look really nice too, love the bees which are raised. I think the only negative I would say about these glasses is, if you look carefully, you can see they are made out of 2 halfs joined together.
lovely heavy glasses
Completing a set with variations from this range! Lovely weighty feel to them, large capacity for wine, but v elegant and nice to hold.
Wonderful glasses
I didn’t buy these from Ocado but from John Lewis a few years back. We love them and use them for red wine in the summer, have a lovely strong feel to them and makes us think of summers in Provence where the restaurants use a similarly sturdy and casual glass as opposed to a traditional wine glass.
