Know before you buy
Yes, the Intermezzo Blue Old Fashioned glasses are dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the clarity and brilliance of the glass over time, we recommend using a gentle cycle or hand washing when possible.
Each glass has a capacity of 8.5 ounces. This size is specifically tailored for serving spirits neat, on the rocks, or for classic cocktails like an Old Fashioned.
The signature blue drop is not a decal; it is a solid piece of blue glass that is expertly encapsulated within the stem or base during the mouth-blowing process. This ensures the color will never fade or scratch off.
Because each glass is mouth-blown by skilled artisans in Sweden, there may be very slight variations in the glass. These subtle differences are a hallmark of authentic craftsmanship and do not affect the quality or functionality of the set.
Each glass stands 3.5 inches tall with a diameter of 3.2 inches. They are designed to feel substantial in the hand without being overly heavy.
