In addition to its angular top, what makes this carafe unique is that a tumbler doubles as a lid. The set is made of handblown glass, 12.75″ tall, and available from CB2 here for just $15.

This beautiful carafe set was designed by Erik Bagger, who began his career as a goldsmith and later later designed for Georg Jensen before working for himself. Its straightforward form shows an attention to detail. Carafe sold with or without two matching glasses. Lid sold separately.

 The Essence series of wine glasses, designed by Alfredo Haberli for Iittala, appear tall and slender while an upward taper creates the impression of strength and stability. The full family includes champagne, white wine, red wine, and tumbler glasses with matching carafe. Alfredo Haberli was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and now works in Zurich.
