The Octave water glasses offer a minimalist aesthetic through their octagonal prism form, handcrafted from borosilicate glass using flame-working techniques. Each glass in this set of four features clean geometric facets that create visual balance while the borosilicate construction provides durability and clarity. The pared-back silhouette pairs with the matching Octave wine glasses for a cohesive table setting.
Valerio Sommella’s study in minimalist glassware for Ichendorf Milano manifests in 'Octave', a collection of pared-back vessels based on octagonal prisms. Handmade and flame-worked from borosilicate glass, this set of four clear water glasses creates balance, beauty and simplicity, elevating tablescapes with purity of approach and ultimate respect for the material. The series' name reflects the design principle while also alluding to the foundational role of the octave in music for creating stability and resolution. 'Octave' water glasses can be harmonized with the matching wine glasses for a fuller look.
