Bombay Sapphire
The glass is inspired by the sapphire bottle of Bombay Sapphire gin, while its shape is meant to conjure up a feeling of refreshment. It’s made entirely of sapphire-coloured glass. The thick walls make gripping a breeze and effectively isolate the drink, keeping it from warming up. Air bubbles associated with refreshment flow through the stem. They “float” upwards and seem to merge with the drink. The glass was designed for a competition organised by the Bombay Sapphire brand.
