One piece of glass
The straw is not in the glass. The straw is the glass.
A cone-shaped cocktail bowl, a hollow stem that drops out of its point, coils into a flat spiral on the table, and rises back up as a tube you drink from. All of it blown as a single piece.
The name undersells it a little. Nothing gets pushed into this glass and nothing gets taken out of it. The spiral you can see is the foot it stands on, and it is also the pipe your drink travels along, which is why you end up sipping from the very bottom of the bowl instead of the top.
How it actually works
Pour it in and the drink finds its own way around
Fill the bowl and the liquid runs down the stem, all the way around the coil on the table, and stands up inside the straw at the same height as the drink in the glass. You can watch it happen. It is the whole trick of the object and it is the reason people pick it up.
When you sip, you are drawing from the lowest point in the bowl. A cocktail that has separated pulls from the bottom layer first, which is either a novelty or a nuisance depending on the drink — with a layered pour it is genuinely fun, and with a stirred martini it makes no difference at all.
There is no seam and no join. There is nothing to insert before you pour, nothing to wash separately, and nothing to lose in a drawer.
Read this before you order
It is small. Properly small.
This holds 3.7 fl oz — 110 ml. That is a short cocktail pour: a martini, a negroni, a sour, one measure and its mixer. It is not a wine glass in the volume sense, whatever the listing title suggests, and it is not going to hold a tall drink.
We are putting that first because "smaller than I expected" is far and away the most common thing buyers say about this style of glass. It is a deliberately small, deliberately theatrical serve. If you know that going in, you will like it. If you are picturing something you can fill with iced tea on the porch, this is the wrong glass and we would rather you found out here.
- Capacity: 3.7 fl oz (110 ml) to a sensible fill line — roughly a double measure with a splash.
- Rim: about 3.5 in (9 cm) across. Close to the width of an ordinary coffee cup.
- Height: about 6.8 in (17.3 cm) overall — and that figure includes the straw, which stands taller than the bowl. The bowl itself sits much lower than the number suggests.
What arrives
One glass, in clear glass
Each order is a single glass. There is one version and one finish — plain colorless glass, no tint, no color options. The drink supplies the color, which is most of the point: a red aperitif or a blue curacao fills the coil and the straw and turns the whole object into whatever you poured.
- In the box: one spiral straw cocktail glass. No straw brush, no second glass, no coaster, no gift box that we can promise.
- Serving for a table? Add the quantity you need to the cart — six guests means six glasses. We do not currently sell a multi-pack, so nothing on this page will do that for you automatically.
- Material. Our supplier specifies borosilicate glass. We have not had a unit independently tested and other sellers of the same shape describe it only as glass, so we are not going to build a heat promise on top of it. See below.
Living with it
Three things worth knowing
None of these are dealbreakers. All of them are easier to hear now than to discover on a Friday night.
Cold drinks only
We are not repeating a heat-resistance figure we cannot stand behind. Sellers of this shape contradict each other — some say hot or cold, one says cold only, and none of them publish a temperature. Treat it as a cold cocktail glass and do not pour anything hot into it.
No brush fits the coil
Nothing you own will go around that spiral. The practical method is to rinse it through under a warm tap straight after you finish, before anything sugary has a chance to dry in the tube. Leave a syrupy drink in it overnight and you will regret it.
It is light, and it stands on a hoop
A flat coil is a smaller and lighter footprint than a weighted glass base. It sits happily on a level surface and it will go over more easily than a heavy-bottomed tumbler on a crowded table. Give it its own bit of space.
Being straight with you
What we are not claiming
Some of this used to be on this page. It is coming off, because we could not stand it up.
- No thermal shock claim, and nothing about warm drinks. This page previously said the glass was resistant to thermal shock and suited to warm beverages. No supplier document we hold supports a temperature figure of any kind, so both statements are gone.
- No dishwasher claim. Listings for this exact shape split down the middle — two say hand wash only, others say dishwasher safe. Until our own supplier puts it in writing, wash it by hand.
- No food-safety certification. We hold no LFGB, FDA or lead-free document for this item, so we make no certification claim on this page. If that matters to you for a drinking vessel, wait until we can show you the paperwork.
- Dimensions are the supplier's, not ours. The 3.7 fl oz / 3.5 in / 6.8 in figures come from our supplier's own spec drawing. Other sellers of similar glasses publish taller numbers, so treat ours as close rather than certified until we have measured a unit here.
Honestly
Who should skip this
- Anyone who wants a full-size wine or cocktail glass. Three and a half ounces is a small serve. Read that number twice before you order.
- Anyone buying for a house with small children or a busy bar. It is thin glass on a hoop foot. It is a lovely object and it is not a workhorse.
- Anyone who wants hot drinks in it. Not this glass, and not until someone documents a temperature for it.
- Anyone who will not rinse it right away. The tube is the best thing about it and the least forgiving thing about it.
- Anyone expecting a set. One order is one glass.
A small drink, made into an event.
Three and a half ounces, one piece of glass, and a spiral that does something in front of you every time you pour.
