Full details
The Tom Dixon Tank Whiskey Glasses are designed for discerning individuals who appreciate sophisticated barware and a refined whiskey-drinking experience. The key benefit is their unique, minimalist design inspired by scientific glassware, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional elegance. A potential caveat is their delicate nature, requiring careful hand-washing to maintain their pristine condition.

They are available in options with hand-painted copper accents or a faded black finish.
