This is a rather unique cup and saucer set- I like how the handle looks like part of a pair of scissors, and the fake shadow is interesting as well…
“what you see is not what you get. this cup and saucer set challenges our perception of what is right and false. the deceiving shadow forged on the saucer resonates the beauty and well-proportioned shape of the coffee cup.”
material : porcelain
size : 4.25 oz

The InsideOut Martini Glasses are available for presale- so now’s the time to put your name down in preparation for all your holiday entertaining (or gift-giving).
“..it creates a wonderful presentation and is a lot better to hold than balancing an overly wide glass filled to the rim on a thin stem…Besides the visual beauty, there is another extremely convincing argument: your drink simply doesn’t warm as fast as it would in a normal martini glass…”

These cross cups are a cute twist on the modern coffee mug. They would also work in well in the bath beside the sink as a rinsing cup.

Reconnecting with childhood amazement is as simple as owning a glass that turns bright blue when you fill it up with cold water.

I like these- the two styles manage to compliment each other and make the regular ol’ drinking glass a little more interesting.
“Each glass is decorated with a vintage style goblet design, they’re the modern glasses with a vintage flair. Glasses measure 3″ in diameter and 6″ tall.”
Set of 4, dishwasher safe.

This set has such nice form; the handle of the pitcher lends a subtle modern feel. It would be an excellent housewarming/wedding gift…
“Like its namesake ‘kotori’ is Japanese for ‘small bird’ this sprightly porcelain sake pitcher stands watch over five small cups. The set, designed by Finland’s Tomi Pelkonen, rests on a thick oak serving tray. SFMOMA exclusive.”

Sustainability is considered quite a bit nowadays, as it should be, and that’s why any recycled home goods certainly catch our eye when we happen upon them. These glasses are made from recycled bottle bases and have a traditional engraving that create a modern sense of nostalgia.

Designed to imitate a traditional half pint glass, this ceramic mug has twin walls to ensure that your coffee or tea will remain hot. Complete with “Half pint” marking, you’re sure to run the risk of a slight desire to be in a pub rather than the office.

I have the InsideOut champagne glasses, and I do have to say they are quite stunning. So, if you’re more of a ‘liqueur’ fan, you can now appreciate your favorite drink in the utmost style.
“In BY:AMT’s collection of barware, the well known and oftentimes iconic shapes of glasses are hidden behind a neutral and discreet outer shape, unassuming and simple. But once you pour the drink, the glass’ inner identity appears creating an unusual and highly fascinating effect.”
The glasses are all mouth blown, are 1.5″ wide and 4.75″ high (4 x 12 cm) and come in a set of 2.

Something like this would certainly provide some stimulation whilst drinking your daily intake of H2O.
“The fantastic array of textures comes from printing them with random, everyday objects such as tape, thread, rubber and an orange net.”

Whether you believe (or know of) Tasseography or not, this cup and saucer is kind of brilliant.
“In this collaboration, redstr/collective and Tobias Wong have taken the Alma Fortune cup and saucer and created a new level of esoteric luxury. Inspired by the age old tradition of Tasseography, Turkish coffee fortune telling, these cups and saucers have one of a kind fortunes suspended in time with 22k gold. Available in three different shapes.”
Models: Short fancy, short simple, tall
Materials: Porcelain, 22k gold

This will certainly raise eyebrows when the next toast comes around. And, since you are getting two glasses in one, the price is a bit more reasonable.
“A collection of reversible glasses consisting of diverse forms inspired by the mixture of people who come from various origins around the world. Designed by Karim Rashid for the award winning Turkish design house Gaia&Gino, each glass is named after a different country people. For example Karl is German – a beer glass, Mehmet is Turkish – raki/champagne glass and Pierre is French – red wine/white wine glass.”
Top Row: The “East and Asia Collection” includes Ivan, Mehmet, Ming Yu, and Yuri – each sold separately.
