DESCRIPTION
‘59 is the year in which Tobia Scarpa first designed these glasses. The proportions were smaller then, more suited to that time. Their shape has been modernised for Atanor without affecting the two main features, which are their suitability for enjoying a drink in company and the fact that they take up little room; the 59 glasses can in fact be stacked in pairs.
The section of the glass has been studied so that the wine is tasted at its best. The narrower base concentrates the liquid and is reminiscent of the classic shape of the tasting glass; the wider rim allows more air to enter, encouraging aeration so that the wine releases its aromas.
The 59 glasses are made by a craftsman working the lampblown borosilicate glass, a fine glass whose high melting temperatures ensures outstanding characteristics of transparency and sturdiness.
There are slight imperfections of structure or form on the surface of each glass, which are a specific feature of the product and testify to the handicraft quality of its manufacture.
