Description
These are four stemmed wine glasses in clear, 100% recycled glass, with a softly hammered surface that catches the light as the glass turns in the hand. Each one stands 17.5cm tall and measures 6cm across, with a tall, narrow bowl that flares gently at the rim, a slender stem and a round foot. They hold 125ml, the small measure of wine in a British pub or restaurant, so they suit a modest pour of white, rosé or sparkling wine rather than a generous glass of red.
A tall, narrow bowl helps sparkling wine hold its bubbles, and these glasses look right on a celebration table, but there is no need to save them for toasts. We like them set out at a small dining table for a weekend lunch, brought out for a dessert wine after dinner, or filled with a short pour of elderflower pressé for guests who are driving. Four glasses lay a table for four, whether for a birthday supper or a quiet Sunday. Between meals, the clear, textured glass looks good on an open shelf in the kitchen or dining room, where it picks up the light from a window.
They go in the dishwasher, so clearing up after a long evening is easy. They are not suited to the microwave or the oven. The hammered surface gives the glass a softer, more relaxed look than smooth, polished glassware, so these sit happily beside everyday stoneware as well as your best china. For a laid-back table, pair them with a plain glass carafe, linen napkins and stoneware plates in earthy tones, and let the texture of the glass carry the look.
