Why this martini glasse earns its place
The Raffles Diamond is the thinking drinker's martini glass. At 190ml, it holds a full, properly mixed martini without crowding the ice, and the tall bowl (137mm) gives the drink room to breathe. The defining detail is the diamond-cut pattern that runs down the exterior — geometric, precise, and deliberately reminiscent of Art Deco barware that set the tone for 20th-century cocktail culture.
The diamond cut is the point here. It's not decoration; it's a design signature that catches light and makes the glass visually interesting, even empty. The fine cut crystal responds to that precision — each cut is clean, the glass is clear, and the weight in the hand (0.117kg) signals quality without pretension. For venues where the martini is central to the offer — whether that's a classic gin martini, a vodka serve, or a variation — Raffles Diamond makes the drink's presentation part of the ritual.
The 90mm footprint fits standard bar drains and doesn't dominate table space. The crystal is durable for high-volume service, though like all cut crystal, it demands a little more care than plain glass. Supplied in a pack of six, with enough presence to feel like proper barware, not disposable glassware.
