Product Description :
Historically-Inspired Cocktail Glass.
The Old Knickerbocker Bar Cocktail Glass has been faithfully reproduced from the original Morgantown Glassworks pattern.
Each glass is crafted with an iconic stem in the shape of a dapper gentleman with a top hat, an homage to John Jacob Astor’s New York, and a symbol of American capitalism.
The Edwardian headwear, de rigueur for patrons of “The Forty-Second Street Country Club,” provided inspiration for a cocktail glass with an exceedingly aristocratic air.
Each glass has a lower center of gravity and its sides are less shallow than modern glass.
Its flat-bottomed bowl gives it a better balance, making a drink harder to spill.
Its solid, figurative stem keeps your warm hand away from the drink and makes it more comfortable to hold.
This Gift Box Set of 2 “Top Hat” Cocktail Glasses (including a history of the era) has a certain sensibility about it, calling to mind the sophistication of the Old Knickerbocker Bar.
A gentleman’s reward, for keeping or giving.
