RIEDEL Drink Specific Glassware Nick & Nora Cocktail Glass

Good weighted glasses that feel sturdy and not brittle. Perfect size for a double old fashioned with a large ice cube. Feel good in the hand and look great

Very stylish old school cocktail glass. The perfect size for a classic Martini or Gibson, i.e. 2oz gin, 1oz vermouth + olive or onion. Some negative reviews have said they're too small. They're only too small for a drink that is meant to be drunk from an entirely different kind of glass. Other negative reviews focus on fragility. I can only say that they appear to be no more fragile than other delicate glasses I have. They need to be handled carefully but so does any other decent glass. I like them very much.

I like the quality of these glasses, very pleasing to drink Negronis from them

Bear in mind these (the "neat cocktail glass") are NOT designed for, e.g., an Old Fashioned or similar with one big, honking ice cube! (these are about 7 cm diameter) Otherwise, ideal for a little nip of anything you fancy. Pretty to look at and a nice weight in the hand.

Though I like the glasses I have only given four stars because I can't get used to the size of the base. The shape of the bowl is great, and just the right size for a double martini or any short cocktail. The glasses seem well made, but the base just does no seem right. It is about the same size as the rim of the bowl, but just looks too big to me. This is, of course, just my opinion, and others may think it is fine. They look great in the glasses cabinet, but when I take one out to use, I generally put it back and take out another Nick and Nora glass that I find more aesthetically pleasing. Shame really as the bowl is so lovely, but the glasses probably will not get as much use as I had expected.

Fantastic cocktail glasses! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. Fabulous!!

Very sturdy. Looks solid. Dishwasher safe and come out like new!

The Nick & Nora is a lovely shape and feel, but 4 oz feels a little on the small side. Technically, it is probably the correct size for the types of cocktails to put in it based on typical recipes, but in practice the washline ends up very tight after dilution. Even just an extra half-oz on the size would have been preferable. The bowls on the Riedel glasses do seem on the thin side for the price (these aren't cheap considering they come in only pairs). So, they're nice-looking but I feel they could be a tad bigger, and a bit weightier.
