Features
Set of 2 Essence 16-ounce red wine glasses; 9 inches high Crafted of clear glass with distinct angular bowls and flat bases Sophisticated, minimalist shape allows endless versatility Created by Alfredo Haberli in 2001; won several European design awards Dishwasher-safe; made in Finland
Alfredo Haberli focused only on the essentials the wine and the glass when designing the Essence wineglass series. A few different sizes is enough to serve a wide range of wines. Even though the shape of the glass is festive and modern, it has been designed on wine's terms. The stems and base of all the glasses are the same size. The bowls of the glasses share the same shape, a precise tapering towards the rim of the glass only their sizes vary. The Essence series is a balanced blend of beauty and functionality, a new generation of wine glasses.

Customer Rating: Summary: Extraordinary Design Comment: Incredible, modern style with classic functionality. Sits well in your hand. Crystal glass. One of the best collections by Alfredo Haberli & iittala. Customer Rating: Summary: iittala wine glasses Comment: I love the design but I was worried that the thin guage of the glass would be too fragile. We've had our first two for two years now and we haven't broken one yet! Customer Rating: Summary: Great wine glass Comment: We got the iittala essence red wine glasses as a gift. Not only do they look awesome and feel good but they make the wine taste great too. Shortly after we got them we did a taste test comparing these glasses against our "cheap" glasses. Every wine we tasted was noticably better in this glass. We liked them so much we bought more so we'd have plenty when we have friends over.
