Fusion Tumbler | Cocktail Glass | 170ml Capacity | Olympia CS473

Q: Are these glasses really all slightly different from each other?

A: Yes, absolutely. The reactive glazing process means that the pattern and  exact finish on each tumbler are unique, giving them a genuinely handcrafted appearance.

Q: What is the benefit of an 'unglazed foot'?

A: The base of the tumbler is left unglazed, which creates a slightly coarser texture. This helps the glass grip surfaces like bar tops and  tables, especially when wet.

Q: Can these be used for hot drinks like coffee or tea?

A: While stoneware offers good insulation, these tumblers are designed and  shaped primarily for cold drinks like cocktails, spirits, juices, and  water.

Q: How durable is stoneware compared to regular glass?

A: Stoneware is fired at high temperatures, making it very robust and  more resistant to chips and  thermal shock (sudden temperature changes) than many standard types of glass.

Q: Are they stackable for storage?

A: They can be stacked with care, but they are not designed for high, tight stacking like some utility glasses. It's best to stack them two or three high to protect the rims.

Q: Is the 170ml capacity measured to the brim?

A: Yes, 170ml (or 6oz) is the 'to brim' capacity, which is the standard measurement for commercial glassware.

Q: Will the dark colour fade after many washes?

A: No. The colour is part of the glaze that is fused to the stoneware body, making it permanent and  highly resistant to fading from commercial dishwashing.

Q: What does 'Soot' colour look like in person?

A: It's a deep, dark, almost-black finish with subtle, lighter textures from the reactive glaze, giving it a very modern and  earthy look.
