Luigi BormioliCrescendo 10 Oz Martini Glasses, Set of 4, Crystal Cocktail Glasses, Dishwasher Safe Martini Glass, Made in Italy

Love these elegant but also somewhat delicate martini glasses. These four were wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap arriving in perfect condition.

We're renovating our kitchen and I decided it was time to get rid of all of the mismatched glasses (we break a lot of glasses) and buy new. I wanted something nicer than what I had before, so based on the reviews for these glasses, I took a chance and decided to buy 2 boxes. I am definitely not disappointed. These glasses are really lovely. The overall shape of the glass is elegant. The glass itself is very very clear and high quality in appearance. The bowl of the glass tapers to a lovely thin rim which makes enjoying a cocktail a pleasure and also makes these glasses comparable to much more expensive glassware. Note that the glass is not so thin as to feel overly fragile. I also appreciate the "just right" size of the bowl. It's large enough to hold an adequate drink without the liquid sloshing out of the glass if one should want to walk around or if one picks their glass up a bit quickly. Finally, I am pleased with the price. These are certainly not the least expensive glasses available, but they are not so expensive that I'll be heartbroken when I break one. With the rate at which glassware breaks in my house, I just couldn't bring myself to spend the money for glasses that were $50 or more per pair. At under $8 per glass, I can afford to replace these if they break. Stone counters are really hard on crystal and glass.By the way, my order was fulfilled by Amazon and both boxes came very well bubble wrapped and taped...lots of bubble wrap. I had no breakage and the boxes were in perfect condition.

Great cocktail glass!

I have a lot of expensive wine glasses and rocks glasses but didn’t want to spend $40 a piece for martini stems. These do the trick. I was a little disappointed in the quality control of these, the crystal has slight imperfections on the interior rim of the glass, on literally every single one out of the box. This has not been the case with other Luigi Bormioli glassware, their rocks glasses are some of my favorite. Overall decent for the money and should do the trick for entertaining. If you are discerning or expensive cocktail maker for yourself and like elegance, I would go Riedel, Zalto, Speiglau. All make great products with much higher elegance and better crystals.

I've gone through several sets of Martini glasses over the past half decade. They just seem to end up broken after some minor collision in the dishwasher or sink. So this time I was looking for something more durable. I've only had these for a few days, but I was delighted at unboxing and equally delighted when that first Martini was poured. Their design is simple, elegant, classic, AND they're a notch more sturdy. Just what I wanted: a daily driver that doesn't make me feel as though I've settled for Industrial Standard. Worth the price.

For how large and strong these glasses are, they are a reasonable, comfortable weight. I had Crate and Barrel ones a long time ago which were thinner and lighter in the hand, but they chipped and broke fairly easily. Since then, the other oversize martini glasses I bought all felt heavy and clunky. I have had these Crescendos for a few months and they have survived the occasional impacts and are a good balance of weight and strength with an elegant clean form. They also have a guarantee on chipping. Very happy with the purchase and bought more of them.

Very attractive glasses, but one arrived with a chip on the rim, and the other one shattered into a million pieces after tipping over. Not falling off a counter, mind you, simply tipping over on a table. For the manufacturer to call these glasses extremely break-resistant is laughable. And for the record, the "25-year guarantee" does not cover a broken glass, only a chipped rim/foot or discoloration. Also, YOU are responsible for returning the chipped glass to Luigi Bormioli in PA, as in, you need to properly pack it and pay for shipping. Then they determine whether OR NOT they will replace it (that's stated right on the guarantee). What a joke. Needless to say, I do not recommend these martini glasses at all!

There are some martini glasses that you just know, when you take them out of the box, that they are going to break sooner rather than later. Almost always a stem issue. These glasses give the opposite impression. But they're hardly clunky. Rather, they are classic, with good clean lines. And they hold plenty of gin! (Or vodka, if that is your preference.) Well worth the money spent.
