Bodum 4554-10 Assam Double Wall Espresso/Shot Glasses Set of 2

What's not to love? These handsome glasses combine great looks with insulating temperature control qualities and anti-condensation protection to boot. Keep your espresso piping hot in the morning and your sake cool in the evening with this set of two shot/espresso glasses, each 3 inches tall and holding 3 ounces of your favorite beverages. These glasses, like all Bodum Assam glasses, are hand made and mouth blown, and cleverly feature a two glass walls, trapping air between the walls to provide insulation, keeping hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. As an added bonus, the dual layers prevent condensation accumulating on the outside of cold drinks and dripping onto your wood tables. The design is not only functional but adds a striking visual aspect to the containers also: beverages seem to float within the glass due to the double-walled design. Taller than they are wide and featuring a wider top than bottom, the visual appeal is further enhanced because the inner layer has a more tapered profile than the exterior. Made of borosilicate glass, the set is dishwasher safe. The design has won several awards and rave reviews, notably the European iF Design Award. Match with any Bodum Assam glassware, or coordinate with Bodum's other double-walled insulated glassware patterns, Pavina and Canteen. --Jeff Dalto
