Optic Highball - Clear - Set of 2 - by Richard Brendon

Inspired by centuries old glass making techniques, the Optic collection from Richard Brendon features a striking and elegant ribbed design across a tumbler, highball and carafe. With a reassuring weight and beautiful tactility, the collection  offers both beauty and versatility in the contemporary or classic home.

The Optic Highball is the perfect glass for serving any long drink you want to savour, and is also a great option for beer thanks to its solid base. With its mesmerising optic on the outside of the glass that glitters in the light, the Optic Highball adds a touch of elegance to the dining table. 

Approx dimensions: H15cm, ø6.8cm / 400ml 

Craftsmanship Story:

Working with some of the finest craftspeople in the world, each piece in the Optic collection has been entirely mouth-blown and handcrafted. The spiralling ribbed effect is not cut in to the glass, instead it is created by drawing the glass out of the mould - a technique perfected over around 500 years. As a result, each piece may be slightly different to the next.

Product Care (from Richard Brendon):

Wash your glassware on the top rack of the dishwasher. Make sure that you are using the proper detergents for your machine and, where relevant, water softening agents. 

If you cannot wash your glassware in a dishwasher, you can wash these by hand. We suggest simply running the glass under warm water with a little detergent and then placing it gently on linen to drain before polishing with a lint-free polishing cloth. Be careful not let the glasses touch the sink, rings, or other washing up items as this can lead to chips in the glass, or even breakages. 

The products in this collection are made with lead-free glass which makes them resistant to clouding. If you do notice clouding on your glass then you will need to wash with water-softening, glass-specific detergents or even vinegar.
