Product Description
Luigi Bormioli Crescendo 15-1/2-Ounce Tumblers, Set of 4: Kitchen & Dining. Luigi Bormioli offers a variety of Crescendo drinkware to complement this set. Decompress with a Scotch on the rocks served in one of the short 15-1/2-ounce double old-fashioned-style tumblers in this Luigi Bormioli four-glass set from the Crescendo glassware collection. In music, the word “Crescendo” indicates the gradual increase of volume up to the movement’s apex; the Crescendo glasses follows a similar trajectory as it rises above comparable stemware with increased brilliance and strength. Made at Luigi Bormioli’s headquarters in Parma, Italy, each tumbler sits on a thick lucid base and its sides curve gracefully from this base to form a soft, rounded bowl. A thin but durable rim with a minute inward turn circles the tumbler’s wide mouth for sipping ease.The Crescendo tumbler set embodies the qualities that established Parma as one of the world’s greatest hotbeds for artisan glassworks with hand-blown glass and the purest sands and natural, raw materials. The set also augments the traditional with modern innovation with its lead-free crystalline SON.Hyx glass construction, first unveiled by Luigi Bormioli in 2007. SON.Hyx’s clarity in both sonority and transparency rivals crystal’s, and actually surpasses the industry darling with great strides in chip-and-crack resilience, from the tumbler’s base to rim. Dishwasher-safe, the short tumblers resist staining and dullness, sustaining their original sparkling lucidity after 400 wash cycles. A 25-year guarantee protects the set from such discoloration and any chips incurred under normal use to the rims and feet. Each tumbler measures 7 by 3-3/4 by 8-1/2 inches.
