Description
This smoked ombre highball tumbler is made from grey glass that starts pale and see-through at the rim and deepens steadily to a near-black at the base. It is a tall, slim glass with straight sides that taper very gently before curving in to a rounded foot, so the shading has plenty of height to build. It stands 14.9cm tall, 7.5cm wide and 7.6cm deep, a classic highball proportion that sits comfortably in the hand. The colour is a soft smoky grey rather than a flat tint, and the fade is gradual, with no hard line where the dark tone begins.
We see it as an everyday glass with a bit of quiet character: tall enough for a long drink with ice, a fizzy soft drink, a gin and tonic or simply cold water from the tap. It suits a kitchen shelf, a drinks trolley or a dining table laid in grey, black, white or natural wood, where the darker base gives the setting a grounded feel. At Christmas it makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys hosting, and a handsome glass to set out for festive drinks with friends and family.
Its smoked finish gives the glass a softly tinted look even at the palest point near its thin, clean rim. The rounded foot sits neatly on a table or tray. For care, we would follow good practice for coloured glass: wash it by hand in warm soapy water, rinse well and dry it with a soft lint-free cloth so it stays clear and bright. Set it beside white plates and linen for a calm, modern table, or wrap it with a favourite bottle for a Christmas present that feels considered.
