Simple and heavy. Is this the perfect glass?
We noticed a trend on some of the other design blogs this morning in that several of them were featuring glassware. For the past few years, we've been using highballs from the Balance barware collection featured at Pottery Barn (yes, Pottery Barn) and we love them. Thick, heavy, sturdy, simple. Pour yourself two glasses of your favorite beverage -- one for each hand -- and you'll get quite a workout curling these 18 oz. behemoths. I wouldn't drink my, uh, non-fat milk any other way.
"Artisans in Poland give these handblown glasses heavy bases and smoothly flared sides that make them a pleasure to hold. Before each glass cools and hardens, the blower uses scissors to cut and shape the rim. Each is oversized to hold plenty of your favorite libation. Made from soda lime glass that's as clear as water."Link: Pottery Barn
