Scope
Drinking glasses + packaging

A traditional Czech crystal glass that carries a modern humour, stranded as it is in a perpetual lean. It will roll and twirl with the world, and it is a superb partner once the drink starts to swirl in hand. Fortunately, unlike those who imbibe, the glass is designed never quite to tip over.

Push one and it rocks but always comes back upright; people who have never seen one reach out to catch it. The rocking also airs the drink: instead of swirling the glass in your hand, you let it rock on the table.

Each piece is hand blown, assigned a serial number and issued with a certificate of authenticity. Packaging: cube-shaped boxes with a pull-out drawer, folded without glue, that slot into one another for any combination of glasses.
