Help me find this whiskey glass
September 2, 2015 2:06 AM Subscribe
I'm looking for a place where I can buy this style of whiskey glass. The glass is asymmetrical, with a heavy base that has several (I think five) smooth ridges on the bottom.
I'm trying to replace an identical glass that was about 20 years old when it broke earlier this year, so the design has been around for a while. The one I'm trying to replace was most likely purchased locally in the Netherlands. According to the restaurant where this photo was taken (a few days ago, also in the Netherlands), they order these glasses in bulk from someplace in Italy.

Best answer: Oh wait, here's a much more reasonably priced option.
I don't know if they ship to where you are but the magic term seems to be "Schott Zwiesel 10° old fashioned"

Response by poster: Yes, you're right! Here is it on the Zwiesel Kristallglas website, and here it is for sale on a Dutch site. The whole "ordered it from Italy" thing was a red herring. Thanks!

Best answer: Just in case:
The one you're linking to is the cocktail glass, the whiskey tumbler is here.

That's $200 for a set of six though, which I suspect might be a bit much.
The general style is "old fashioned glass" though, which may help. Searching for slanted/tilted old fashioned glass throws up lots of similar stuff.
