The Story Behind the Design

The worker bee has been associated with Manchester since the Industrial Revolution

Symbolising the industry, resilience and collective spirit that helped shape one of the world's great manufacturing cities. Today the worker bee remains one of the city's most recognisable civic emblems.

This engraved design places the bee at the centre of the composition beneath the words Made in Manchester, creating a confident tribute to the city's identity. Fine engraved detail captures the texture of the wings, body and fur while preserving the bold silhouette that has made the Manchester Bee an enduring symbol for generations.

The engraving is centred and spaced to maintain balance within the available engraving area.

Engraving & Personalisation

A short personal inscription may be included with this design. Each engraving is arranged in the studio to suit the composition of the glass.

If your requirements extend beyond the personalisation available on this listing, please get in touch. Longer inscriptions or more complex requirements may require a bespoke quotation.

A Personalisation Layout is provided before engraving so you can check the wording, names, dates and other factual information supplied with your order.

The Signature wine glass features a gently curved tulip bowl set on a proportionate stem and stable foot. The forward-facing bowl curve provides a clear engraving field, allowing crests, monograms or multi-line text to be positioned with measured spacing and legibility.

The moderate bowl depth and clean silhouette support both display and table use without visual distraction from excessive contouring.
