Decorative Glasses

Decorative GlassesCornet Barcelona recently sent us these stunning decorative glasses, which will enhance any wine tasting or dining room table. Master glassblowers shape each individual glass in Cornet Barcelona collections. Artists handcraft each glass one at a time. These wine balloon glasses, Ocean Majesty, honor architect Antoni Gaudí’s lifelong passion for the sea, reflecting the marine life that inspired him. And although Cornet Barcelona didn’t realize it, these glasses are particularly fitting for us, because we live on a lake near the sea.

Decorative Glasses

Ocean majesty glassesEvery Cornet Barcelona art piece is a tribute to Antoni Gaudí, drawing inspiration from his iconic works in Barcelona. For example, these two wine glasses, named Ocean Majesty, feature shimmering shades of ultramarine and turquoise, echoing the colors of the ocean. The golden fish and seaweed patterns seem to dance on the glass. The wide bowl of these “balloon wine glasses” gives wine room to breathe. However, if you prefer glasses especially created for a specific wine grape, these beauties can still be appreciated as artwork in your home.

In addition, you can order Ocean Majesty in champagne flutes, cocktail glasses, martini glasses, whiskey glasses, stemless wine glasses, water glasses, goblets, a water pitcher, a wine decanter, and even a whiskey decanter. You can also enjoy sets of varying sizes: ranging from one glass to 24. As well, Cornet Barcelona offers different designs, so you might want a single glass of several types to mix and match. For instance, another collection, called “Sagrada” honors and reflects the gorgeous stained-glass windows of The Sagrada Familia Basilica, Gaudi’s architectural masterpiece and one of the most iconic buildings in the world.

Of  note, as Cornet Barcelona suggests, “These glasses aren’t just tableware. They’re conversation starters, the kind of pieces that bring a little wow to your table.”

Summary

As Gaudí once said, “The view of the sea is a necessity for me.” We feel the same way. And we know that our Ocean Majesty glasses will enhance our happy hours lakeside this summer.
