Product details
Versatile crystalline glass with slightly larger bowl than standard white wine glasses, perfect for opening up aromas.
Great for fuller-bodied whites like Chardonnay, and versatile enough to double as a red wine glass for lighter reds.
This glass looks like it’s made with traditional crystal, but it’s made with crystalline ― a strong alternative with a clear brilliance and a fine tone when you clink your glasses.
Manufactured in a way similar to handmade glasses, which means that the stem of the glass is smooth and has no seam.
Dishwasher-safe makes life easier.
In the STORSINT series there is glassware for all types of drinks, so you can easily match glasses when setting the table.

Match your drink with the right glass
Did you know that there is a whole science behind why drink glasses look the way they do? Fortunately, you don’t need to dive into the science to match your favourite drink with the right glass. We developed the STORSINT glass series so you have optimal glasses for different drinks. But first we needed to thoroughly understand what happens to a drink when it’s poured into a glass with a certain shape – so we took on the help of some experienced sommeliers along the way. Product developer Malin Ljungström shares some facts: “For example, a younger drink should be served in a smaller bowl with a slightly narrower opening. This is so the drink is not affected too much by the oxygen in the air", explains Malin."On the other hand, an older and fuller drink needs a large, round bowl and a relatively wide opening to enhance all the aromas and flavours from the drink being more in contact with oxygen."
How a wine is enjoyed when drinking from a wine glass is also about the balance between the bowl, shaft and foot. “A good wine glass should be nice to hold and beautiful to look at”, says Malin.
New insights about drink
For Malin, the collaboration with the sommeliers meant that some of her conceptions about drink changed. For example, that champagne or other sparkling drink should always be enjoyed from tall flute glasses with plenty of room for the bubbles. “It’s true about younger drinks , but we learned that an older champagne is more aromatic, and can therefore be served in a drink glass with a larger bowl to develop its full potential”, says Malin and adds: "In the world of drinks, there’s always something to learn."

Designer thoughts
"When I designed STORSINT, I wanted to make glassware that enhances the enjoyment of drinks. I made the stems thin and smooth so that they're comfortable to hold, and the bowl generous so that aromas and and flavours develop in the best way. I was partially inspired by the fantastic glassware at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. With STORSINT, I wanted to create glassware which suits all occasions, which is beautifully designed – and can be used year after year."
