apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

>> Alessi Mami Water Tumbler

A few days later I was visiting the CB2 store on Broadway (looking at outdoor chairs), when I noticed their glass collection. With much lower price points, I saw a number of designs that were really, really cool. The CB2 folks have good eyes:

>> Beaker Glasses - these look like plastic cups but are made of durable chem lab beaker glass and stackable.

>> Stack Barware - These have a very cool shape that allows them to be big, thin and also stack. They look like old fashioned soda fountain glasses, but with a slight twist. I thought they were very distinctive.

This got me thinking about my OLD favorites, so I went just a bit further to complete the list of favorite everyday glasses for 2009.

>> Martha's Favorite Hadley Glasses at Macy's - This seems to be a reissue of the old Martha's favorite glasses, which are awesome, but were discontinued when her catalog folded.

>> Gio Glasses - Handmade in Poland, these babies are really, really thin and stylish, but not for use around babies. :-)

>> Pebble Optic Tumblers - For those of you who want everyday glasses that won't break, I really love these guys that I found in the Grenadine Islands.
