Let’s be real: there’s something magical about the right glass. It can transform a Tuesday night pour into a celebration, or a regular breakfast table into a scene from a European café.
At Slowdown Studio, our glassware isn’t just about function - it’s about feeling. Feeling calm. Feeling creative. Feeling like your home reflects the beautifully chaotic, joyfully considered life you’re building. From hand-blown cups to sculptural flutes, this is drink-specific glassware that doesn’t take itself too seriously - but still turns heads.
Toast-Worthy Style: Champagne Flutes, Carafes & Coasters
If your drink of choice deserves a little fanfare, we’ve got just the thing. Our champagne flutes like the Pomponette set are basically glass confetti - light-catching, colorful, and celebratory by design. Pair them with our Bedside Carafe & Glass in Amber or the understated elegance of the Pourover Carafe – Gray, and suddenly your kitchen feels like a gallery.
Add a little mischief with the Hors D'Oeuvres Coasters -playful linen protectors that turn spills into talking points. Because great design should always come with a wink.
Everyday Glasses That Are Anything But Basic
Meet your new favorite roommates: the Tutti Frutti Cup and friends. Hand-blown by Pierre Bowring in Beacon, NY, each Tutti Frutti Cup is a joyful rebellion against boring drinkware. Think bright swirls, unique forms, and that “I need to know where you got this” energy.
These are not just water glasses or juice glasses. They’re mood-lifters. Shelf stylers. Ice-clinking, smile-inducing bits of glass joy. Whether you’re sipping cold brew from a Can Glass, mocktails from a Y Glass, or something stronger in your Old Fashioned or Rocks Glasses, these everyday heroes deliver aesthetic appeal in every swirl.
The Maison Balzac Moment: Pure Glassware Poetry
There’s something almost meditative about using Maison Balzac pieces. Their Belgian Style Glasses and Okawa Glass sets carry the kind of design language that whispers quiet luxury. And their use of borosilicate glass means it’s as sturdy as it is stunning - ideal for daily rituals with a side of flair.
And for those who know that butter is not just a food but a lifestyle, meet theEverything Nice Butter Dish by Sophie Lou Jacobsen. It’s curvy, flirty, and undeniably fabulous -reimagining the humble butter dish as a sculptural centerpiece.
The Art of the Table Setting
Styling your home isn't just about the furniture. It’s about the details - the light glinting through your V Glass on a sun-drenched morning, or the shimmer of a Stemless Copper Glass as you unwind with a nightcap. It’s in the rhythm of the everyday: refilling your volumetric flask turned vase, or lining up a Shot Glass Set like modern art.
The right table setting can tell a story. And at Slowdown Studio, we believe every piece on your shelf or table should feel like the main character.
Glassware Gifting Yes, Please
Whether you’re checking Your cart twice or simply treating yourself to something special, our glassware collection is packed with giftable goodness. Add it to your Shop Christmas list and give the kind of gift that keeps toasting - again and again.
Looking for the perfect present? Pair a Stemless Martini Glass with a bottle of something delicious. Or gift a Pourover Carafe with your favorite local beans. It's the thoughtful-meets-functional combo everyone wants but rarely buys for themselves.
Why Our Glassware Is More Than Just… Glass
At Slowdown, we collaborate with independent artists to craft pieces that make you look twice. Every ripple, every hue, every playful curve is a reminder: beauty lives in the everyday. Our cocktail-specific glasses, wine glasses, and whisky glass ROCK selections are all about celebrating little rituals - without overthinking it.
So go ahead. Mix that drink. Style that shelf. Make your glassware part of your design story.
Glass Half Full: Final Pour
Glassware isn’t just about what you drink. It’s how you live. From joy-sparking flutes to sculptural carafes to everyday cups that feel anything but, we’re here to help you style your space, one beautiful sip at a time.

Each item is crafted with care, often by independent artists. Our glassware blends utility with art, designed to elevate everyday moments into meaningful rituals.

Absolutely. That’s the beauty of our collection - it’s made for mixing. Contrast a colorful Y Glass with a minimalist Maison Balzac piece, and you’ve got instant visual texture.

Layer by height, group by color, and break up clusters with unexpected textures - like linen napkins or a volumetric flask vase. Functional can still be fabulous.
