The idea behind design is to serve a useful item in the most tasteful way, literally. Meaning, to create the desire for more of the same. This beautiful Rocking Glass set, from Normann Copenhagen, does exactly that – you want more of it and you want more of what it does.
This is a simple drinking glass with a twist – a curved bottom that prevents the glass from falling over, allowing it to rock but not to spill. Perfect for cocktail parties, this is indeed a refreshing take on the so called “simple” item that is the drinking glass. Use it to serve drinks or simply as a decorative item, completed with a tea light or a little flower.

Most of the new things I see are based on design (shapes, colors, textures etc) so it is refreshing when I come across an idea that “challenges” my mind. The Cipher glass managed to surprise me with its’ engaging quality of identifying my drink of choice.

A glass is not always just a glass. It should create the right environment for the drink, giving the drinking action an entire new meaning. The H2O designer glass set, from Riedel, is all about quality and class. This dishwasher-safe set features longdrink/highball glasses – tall cylindrical shapes crafted from finely cut, lead-free transparent glass.
Each glass stands 5-5/8 inches high and holds 22-7/8 ounces-ample dimensions that give the vessel a spacious yet structural presence to showcase the beverage and ice within. A simple yet highly designed collection, Riedel’s H20 barware subtly conveys upscale urban cool.

These beautiful, one of a kind, glass vessels were created by Dutch designer Dick Van Hoff and are a tribute to quality design and workmanship. This series of hand-blown glass containers were produced in collaboration with Dutch manufacturer Royal Leedam, masters in producing quality crystal. Each of the crystal vessels is hand blown using traditional techniques. To counter the fact that no two are the same, all have exquisitely made wooden handles integrated into the design. These handles are industrially manufactured, providing a design element that binds the vessels into a series and makes them functional.

When we entertain for dinner, we’re mostly worried about the dish set we’re going to use, the table decoration, the map, the candles and somehow we give very little thought, if any, to the glasses. We usually end up with the all familiar “regular” wine glass. As I saw the Argento Drinkware set, designed by Julia Knight, I immediately thought to myself that this is a unique, elegant and sophisticated set, which will add to the entire decoration and will help to create the ambiance I want.
