Check out the glasses that we found at Design Within Reach. The set is called the Usuhari Stacking Glasses, which consist of 5 stacking glasses. The company has been making glasses since 1958 using techniques used for making light bulbs. And although the glasses look delicate and the name Usuhari means ”this glass”, these puppies can be handled with the same care as ordinary glassware. So you are getting the chic look with the same low maintenance care of your everyday glasses. Also check out DWR’s amazing glassware  tea accessories, including teapots and a tea warmer.

For those after hours drinks, head on over to the MoMA Store for some excellent more “mature” drinking options. They carry a great line of inside out glasses including the “Inside Out Martini Glass” and the “Inside Out Champagne Glass”. These come in sets of two and add something a little different to any occasion. Also check out the “Wobble Congac Glasses”. You have never seen any glasses like these and are guaranteed to rock the night, literally! All these options are amazing and will add a little more to any glassware collection. So check them out!

Pirouette stemless champagne glass by Roost. Platinum Berry stemless champagne glass by Roost. Yes, “casual champagne” is an oxymoron, but the warmer months have us craving outdoor brunches and lunches with champagne or even better, Prosecco. I personally love stemless champagne flutes. They reinforce the fact that your wine is only as good as the company you keep.

The main reason wine and champagne glasses have stems is to help maintain the right temperature. If you’re really persnickety you hold your glass by the stem to keep the body heat of your hand away from your beverage. But if you want to be relaxed and casual you can sip from some of our spring selections. Above are two styles by Roost that I’m bringing in to Burlock and another style by Deborah Ehrlich that I absolutely worship, but will not be bringing in at this time. The Ehrlich glasses are crystal, not glass and sell for about $45 each. For glassware by Roost, contact Global Table for a special order. They are located at 107 Sullivan Street, NYC, 212 431 5839.  And for the Deborah Ehrlich glasses visit Takashimaya located at 693 Fifth Avenue, NYC, 212 350 0100.  Love how you live.
