The substantial weight and perfect balance of the crystal are frequently noted, emphasizing the vibrant deep ruby color.

Know before you buy
The ruby red hue is integrated into the crystal itself, a hallmark of Ajka Crystal's traditional glassmaking techniques. This ensures the color remains vibrant and will not peel or fade over time.
At 16.8 ounces (475 grams), this highball has a substantial, weighted feel. It provides a premium, sturdy presence that is characteristic of high-quality crystal.
While the crystal is durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the clarity and brilliance of the ruby red finish. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive sponges to prevent micro-scratches.
With a 13.2 oz capacity, this glass is ideal for tall cocktails like a Tom Collins, a Mojito, or a classic gin and tonic. The height and volume allow plenty of room for ice and garnishes without overcrowding the drink.
The Odessa highball features a refined, elegant rim profile typical of fine crystal. It is designed to provide a comfortable drinking experience while maintaining the structural integrity of the piece.
