Cocktail Glass

Tuesday, 4 August 2026

Icy

Icy is a cocktail glass designed for chilled drinks and layered cocktails. Each piece is mouth blown in a studio in Finland and shaped in a wooden mold. An ancient Venetian technique creates the crackled icy surface, while the form follows modern Scandinavian simplicity. The rim is finished with a flame for a smooth edge. The glass measures 80 mm in diameter and 100 mm in height, which gives a sturdy feel in the hand. Every glass is signed and numbered. The aim is to create durable everyday objects that last for decades.

A bi-folding handrail and an automatic safety gate move with the folding action. Stringers and treads are cut from sustainably sourced bamboo plyboard using low waste cutting methods. Brass, aluminium and stainless steel parts support a long service life. Each unit is made to the required height and angle, so access to upper levels is gained with minimal building work.
