Product Description
Great for iced tea and other beverages / 13 Oounce Capacity / Clear, double-wall glass / Set of 2
Amazon.com Review
Combining modern materials and clever styling, Bodum's Assam drinkware brings a truly innovative look to the table. The walls of each vessel are actually two layers of clear glass, creating an optical illusion that the liquid is suspended within. Highlighting the dramatic effect, the Assam shape features slightly concave sides that flare out as they reach the smooth, round rim. This set of two double wall cooler/beer glasses serves frosty ales or hot toddies with equal ease. Crafted from borosilicate glass, which is also used to make scientific lab equipment, the pair is exceptionally strong, lightweight, and thermal. The two-layer construction also resists heat and prevents condensation, so no matter what temperature the beverage is, the glasses remain comfortable to hold and safe for any tabletop. Winner of the prestigious European IF Design Award, this 13-ounce, scratch-resistant set goes safely into the dishwasher and microwave. Mix and match Assam with the Pavina and Canteen lines for a variety of fun shapes. --Kara Karll Editor's Note: Because the glasses are mouth blown, each one may have slight variations in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. Do not use metal spoons or place the glass into a crowded dishwasher.

 Double wall beverage glasses September 11, 2005

These mouth blown double wall glasses keep their contents cold to the last drop. I tested them to 2 hours and the contents were still as cold as when poured. The glasses have a smooth, pleasant feel to the lips and are attractive enough for the most discerning guest. They will hold 12 oz of beer, but no room for a head, so pour with care. I am using them for every drink I want to keep hot or cold. They don't "sweat" and they don't burn my hands with hot liquid in them. Great, classy, addition to our bar.
Perfect for everything cold that sweats and ruins your pretty tabletops. August 24, 2006

Gave these to my mom. She loved them, now I need to get some for myself. They are great, wish they were a little bigger since we use them more for ice water than for beer.
lovely but lethal! July 10, 2008

i've had these less than 2 wks. just was hand-washing one and it slipped - huge sharp shards slice both of my hands - jagged and deep.
as a 27+-yr career research biochemist, i am used to pyrex lab glass - which i THOUGHT this was - waaaaaaaaaaaayyy too thin for in-home use!
do not buy.
Clever idea. October 6, 2006

What a great gift for someone who had everything - a perspiration-free glass for their iced tea drink on a hot summer day.

These double-wall glasses are wonderful. They hold onto the temperature of your drink longer and in warmer weather there is no condensation puddling around your glass and on your table. I read many of the reviews stating that they were very fragile. Fortunately, we have found them to be very durable. Of more than a dozen we have only broken one glass and that was because it received a direct hit that sent it flying to a ceramic tile floor . . . where just about everything breaks! We haven't used a regular glass or even a stemmed wine glass since purchasing all sizes of these double-wall glasses. There are no children in the home so I cannot speak for durability around children.
