Description
This tall glass has a softly hammered texture across its clear sides, so every drink catches the light as it is poured and lifted. It is a simple straight-sided shape, round at the base, with a smooth rim and a gently rippled surface that gives it a relaxed, textured look rather than a plain one. The glass is completely clear, with a shiny finish that lets the colour of whatever you pour show through, from sparkling water to fresh orange juice. It stands 17.8cm tall, 5.9cm wide and 6cm deep, a slim size that sits comfortably in the hand and takes up little room on a busy table.
We like it on the dining table at mealtimes, set at each place, and just as much on the kitchen worktop for a long glass of something cool on a warm afternoon. The tall, narrow shape suits long drinks, fruit juices and fizzy water poured over ice, and its plain clear glass sits happily in country kitchens and modern dining rooms alike. Because it carries no colour or pattern of its own, it works with whatever plates and tableware you already have. It also makes a thoughtful new home gift for someone setting up their first kitchen, a useful everyday piece they will reach for again and again.
It is clear glass throughout with a shiny finish, and the hammered texture is part of the glass itself. As general good practice for glassware, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft, lint-free cloth to keep it bright. Handle it with the usual care you would give any glass, and store it upright on a shelf or in a cupboard. For a gift, add a bottle of elderflower cordial and a handwritten card, and it is ready to welcome someone into their new home.
