IVRIG Glass, clear glass, 15 oz (45 cl)

Glass is mainly made of sand, soda and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.

"When I designed the IKEA 365+ IVRIG series I wanted to make wine glasses with character. The square bowl and the wide foot make them stand out and give them an extra design touch. The glasses don't just have a distincive design, they're also practical and durable, and can be washed in the dishwasher, even though they're mouth-blown. That makes the series perfect both for everyday use and special occasions."
