36 Pretty Cocktail Glasses To Get You Ready For The Party Season

Whether you’re sipping a Negroni or knocking back a Margarita, you know it’s going to taste even better when served in one of these unique cocktail glasses…

As we sashay into the party season with sequins and sparkle aplenty, festive cocktails are a must, obviously. More than any other time of the year, it feels right to serve up and indulge in a decadent array of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. We’re talking colourful delights with frosted glass rims; dehydrated fruit or fresh olives bobbing artfully in tangy libations. But to turn these bold drinks into something spectacular, pour them into an equally special glass. There’s nothing dull about the ones we’ve selected. From coupes to highballs, each one offers eye-catching detail to elevate your cocktail of choice.

If you’re a bit of a maximalist or a colour enthusiast, then your options are nothing short of fabulous. Take the vivid blue Jonathan Adler hi-ball glasses or the red and pink Five And Dime flutes – absolute beauties. Similarly, Australian brand Maison Balzac, instantly known for its quirky glassware, is a must for unique, stand-out pieces, as is Ichendorf Milano which includes the most stunning floral Botanica glasses. And then, of course, there’s Helle Mardahl Studio which produces candy-coloured creations influenced by Alice In Wonderland and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The finished product is pure art.

For something elegant, you can rely on Soho Home. The Roebling collection, which was designed for Dumbo House in New York is a tribute to John Augustus Roebling the civil engineer who designed and built Brooklyn Bridge. The handcrafted crystal glasses are each intricately cut with straight lines echoing the cables that suspend above this historical landmark. They are sophisticated and timeless; guaranteed to inject more than a little class to your martini. You’ll find other sleek styles at Rose & Grey, Oka and Oliver Bonas.

So, whether you’re looking to enhance a sleek soirée or transform your tablescape, you won’t go wrong with any one of these stunning glasses. Now all you need to do is perfect your cocktail recipe… are your mixologist skills up to the challenge?
