# Colorful Glass Juicers Elinor Portnoy Designs an Artistic Handmade Take on a Traditional Juicer By Meghan Young | Published 2015-06-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-juicer References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2015/06/23/a-colorful-juicer-made-from-carved-hand-blown-glass/) & [elinorportnoy](http://www.elinorportnoy.com/) The world of juicing has taken on a life of its own and to prove that is this gorgeous glass juicer. Instead of using something industrial or kitschy, one designer decided to turn the healthy task into a form of art. Elinor Portnoy has made one out of [hand-blown glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-glass-bottles), sculpting the design into a mountainous peak that looks as though it would belong in a candy land. That's because the glass juicer is [brightly colored](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pavilion-set). The glass juicer is available in various shapes and hues. The designer writes, "I’ve decided to make a tool for the kitchen that will attempt to question the way we perceive function and form. These citrus squeezers are made of glass with multiple colours, revealed by coldworking to “peel off” the layers, much like the fruit it squeezes." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Artistic Kitchen Tools:** Opportunity for designers to create beautiful and functional kitchen tools that elevate mundane tasks. - **Sustainable Kitchenware:** Opportunity for designers to prioritize eco-friendly materials and manufacturing methods in creating kitchenware. - **Personalized Kitchen Gadgets:** Opportunity for designers to create customizable kitchen gadgets that celebrate individuality and personal taste. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Goods:** Opportunity for home goods companies to appeal to consumers by offering visually striking and functional kitchen tools. - **Artisanal Goods:** Opportunity for artisanal goods makers to differentiate from mass-produced goods by creating unique and handmade kitchen tools. - **Eco-friendly Products:** Opportunity for eco-friendly product companies to offer stylish and sustainable kitchenware options to consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artesian Citrus Juicers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verve-culture-1.md) - [Vitamin-Packed Citrus Juicers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citring-one.md) - [Dynamic Colored Glass Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tip-top-glass.md) - [Statement Glass Curvaceous Glassware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juno-collection.md) - [Colorful Elevated Glassware Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elevated-glassware.md) - [Flower-Inspired Glassware Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-verre-bonbon.md) - [Chic Glass French Presses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-french-press.md) - [Elegant Colored Glassware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colored-glassware-collection.md) - [Industrial Design Blenders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jar-blender.md)
