(More customer reviews)I bought a set in 2001 & immediately became a huge fan. They are elegant, classic, practical and almost unbreakable! I've dropped them on tiled floors on more than one occasion and they haven't broken. They are Tempered and 2.5 times stronger than regular glasses!
Then I moved and during the move the box went missing so I went immediately and got another set. Over the years I lost exactly 3 of them and when I went to replenish these I was told they've stopped manufacturing them! I couldn't believe it! I would have people come over and as soon as they'd see my glasses they'd talk about how they've been looking for these everywhere. I even had friends trying to buy them from me. They are literally THE icons in glassware.
You can get them in the following sizes:
3.75 oz - 2.6" Height x 2.5" Diameter at the top
4.25 oz - 2.8" Height x 2.9" Diameter at the top
5.75 oz - 3.0" Height x 2.8" Diameter at the top
7.75 oz - 3.2" Height x 3.2" Diameter at the top
8.75 oz - 3.5" Height x 3.4" Diameter at the top
10.5 oz - 3.6" Height x 3.5" Diameter at the top
12 oz - 4.7" Height x 3.5" Diameter at the top
16.75 oz-2.6" Height x 2.5" Diameter at the top
I use the small 5.75 oz glass for having Persian tea (since the color is important and has to be served in a clear glass), I use the 8.75 oz glass for serving whiskey as well as wine in the "French Cafe" style, and the large 12 oz one for water, juice, shakes etc. It also is a perfect fit for standard cocktail shakers. Now that they're back I'm going to buy a couple sets and hoard them, as well as buying a few sets to give to friends. 5 stars is just not enough for these.
