Pasabahçe

Welcome to our Paşabahçe boutique, a Turkish glassware manufacturer founded in 1935 in Beykoz, Istanbul, by İşbank at the initiative of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's government. The first modern glassmaking furnace ever installed in Turkey, Paşabahçe marked a technological revolution in the country and has been part of the Şişecam industrial group from the start. The brand now distributes its glassware in more than 140 countries and ranks among the world's leading producers of blown and pressed glass.

Paşabahçe's expertise

Paşabahçe draws on the heritage of Ottoman glassmaking, which it reinterprets at industrial scale using a wide range of techniques (blown, pressed, cut, painted glass). The brand combines large-volume production with more exclusive decorative collections crafted in its artisanal workshops.

Choosing Paşabahçe

What sets Paşabahçe apart on the glassware market?

Paşabahçe combines a unique history — Turkey's first modern industrial glassworks, founded in 1935 on the political initiative of Atatürk — with an industrial capacity that makes it one of the world's largest glassware brands, distributed in more than 140 countries. Its backing by the Şişecam group allows it to offer glassware at an excellent quality-to-price ratio, particularly appreciated in hospitality.

Why are Paşabahçe glasses so widespread in hospitality?

Paşabahçe glasses are designed to withstand intensive service: solid bases, batch consistency, standardised shapes that can be replaced like-for-like over several years. This reliability, combined with a competitive price, explains their very wide use in cafés, restaurants and hotels in Europe and beyond.

Are Paşabahçe glasses dishwasher-safe?

The vast majority of Paşabahçe glasses are dishwasher-safe, in line with their market positioning (hospitality and family tables). Decorated, hand-painted or hand-cut models may require more delicate washing — check the marking on the product.

Which Paşabahçe glass should I choose for wine service?

For wine service, Paşabahçe offers several stemmed glass ranges covering red wine, white wine and champagne flutes. For a versatile table, a universal wine glass is enough; for more specialised service, you can differentiate red / white glasses based on the shapes offered by the brand.
