Like all Luigi Bormioli collections, Atelier embodies Italy"s gusto for the good things of the earth: our wines and foods that are uniquely Italian, but loved the world over. An extensive collection of graceful glasses whose angled bowls add interest to the design and more surface for refracting light through beverages. Atelier glassware is machine blown in Parma Italy and made in Luigi Bormioli"s proprietary SON.hyx material. SON.hyx produced glassware is an exciting fusion of elegance and technology. In addition to having ideal bowl shapes and fine rims, glassware made in SON.hyx is extremely brilliant in color, has a beautiful sound, maintains its clarity after thousands of industrial dishwashing cycles and possesses an extremely high level of durability.
