Everyday glassware gets used more than almost anything else in the kitchen — which makes it worth choosing deliberately. At Lulu and Georgia, the tumblers and drinking glasses collection spans hand-blown and mouth-blown glass tumblers, highball glasses, juice and water glasses, double old-fashioned rocks glasses, and everyday sets from both artisan studios and well-regarded European makers. Pieces that look right whether they’re on a breakfast table or a properly set dinner.
What tumblers and drinking glasses does Lulu and Georgia carry?
The collection includes short tumblers and rocks glasses, tall highball and Collins glasses, juice glasses and water glasses, everyday sets in both clear and tinted glass, and artisan hand-blown glasses in limited quantities. Materials span hand-blown glass, mouth-blown recycled glass, tempered everyday glass, and lead-free crystal. Most are sold in sets of 4 or 6; open-stock pieces are available for select styles.
What is the difference between a tumbler and a highball glass?
A tumbler is a short, wide glass typically used for spirits on the rocks, water, or juice — generally 8–12 oz. A highball glass is taller and narrower, designed for mixed drinks served over ice with a large volume of mixer — typically 10–16 oz. Old-fashioned glasses (also called rocks glasses) are wider and shorter than a standard tumbler, used for spirit-forward cocktails. For versatility, a set of tumblers covers most everyday drinking needs.
Are tinted or colored drinking glasses practical for everyday use?
Yes — tinted glass in amber, green, blue, and smoked tones has made a significant comeback in contemporary tableware and works well for everyday use. Colored glass does not affect the taste of what’s in it. For everyday water or juice glasses, color adds visual warmth to a table without requiring other elements to be changed. Most tinted glasses in the collection are dishwasher-safe on the top rack.
