20111005007

Cin Cin Glasses

20111004018

In China, the bride and groom are expected to drink “cross-cupped wine” from one another’s glasses on their wedding parties, and that indicates they’ll then remain a devoted couple to the end of their lives. Possibly inspired by that tradition from the East, designer Camilla Fucili has come up with this Cin Cin Glasses that allows two people to drink from different directions. But as the two glasses are connected to each other, people who are using them will therefore be brought closer to each other too.

Animal Wine Stopper

20110306501

The animal wine stoppers? What a strange idea! But admittedly it is great too. Any animals here love drinking and they’re sticking their noses into the bottles to enjoy the wine. I just wish they wouldn’t be drunk so that they could successfully get out of the bottles. [Read the rest of this entry...]

But more importantly, the new series offers elegant and decorative stoppers for wine bottles, and the designer has also found “new shapes and expressions to give new life to the object.” So how do you like them?

The magic glass is mainly based on a calligraphic design—ambigram, which makes one word to be read as more words from different angles. [Read the rest of this entry...]

DesignBridge created wine glasses that are difficult to smash.

20100211801

Since every year over 87,000 fights in Britain are caused by drinking, the local designers have been committed to developing a new range of glasses that are more difficult to smash. At present, two prototypes have been finished: the Twin Wall and the Glass Plus. Announced by their creator DesignBridge, the first prototype is inspired by car windscreens and is made by using resin to stick two thin walled glasses together. As for the second design, it features a thin film of bio-resin coated inside the glass. Experiments showed that neither of the two kinds of glasses will be broken into sharp fragments when dropped onto the floor. Therefore, they will reduce the injuries caused by bar fights.

One glass? Or three glasses?

201001041101

Change happens all the time and nothing stays the same for long. Maybe that’s also a key principle to designers, and they’ve come up with a unique set of glasses as shown here. Seemingly like two or three glasses are laid on top of each other, it’s actually just one glass. If you’re looking for something creative and distinctive, we’d like to strongly recommend the innovative collection of glasses and bowls to you. [Read the rest of this entry...]
