Set of 6 Pumpkin Tumbler Glasses

Some glassware asks to be kept in a cabinet. This one is happier in daily rotation. The pumpkin form gives it softly ribbed walls that curve out from a narrow rim into a rounded belly, so the light moves across it as the level drops and a plain glass of tap water suddenly looks considered. Clear glass keeps whatever you pour as the main event: the caramel layers of an iced latte, a mint sprig drifting in cold water, the deep amber of tea over ice. At 350ml it holds a proper serving with room left for cubes and a citrus slice, and the low 8.6cm height keeps it steady on a tray and easy to slide under a standard kitchen cupboard.

Borosilicate glass makes it as suited to a hot matcha or morning coffee as to a chilled cocktail, with a working range from -20°C to 140°C, so a single glass carries you from breakfast through to the evening rather than living in one corner of the day. The rounded 9cm body sits comfortably in one hand, including smaller ones, and the smooth rim and open shape rinse clean in seconds by hand, or go on the top rack of the dishwasher. Build a set gradually or buy a few at once; they look best in a loose group where the ribbing catches different angles of light.
