Mouth-blown of 2 layers of lightweight, durable borosilicate glass
Keeps drinks insulated; won't form condensation on outside
Winner of the prestigious European iF Design Award
Editorial Review:
Set of 2 Glass Espresso Cups / 3.5 Ounce Capacity each cup
At last, a glass that won't burn or freeze your hand. Two walls of clear glass with an air layer in-between not only keep drinks cold--or hot--but prevent condensation from forming on the outside. So, an ice-cold shot of vodka or a steamy espresso feels just right, no matter the temperature. And coasters won't be needed, either.
Winner of the prestigious European iF Design Award, the mouth-blown Pavina glass exhibits Bodum's flair for the modern. Each two-ounce glass curves beguilingly and fits the palm just right. Mouth-blown of borosilicate glass, which is quite a bit thinner yet much more durable than regular glass, the two Pavina glasses in this set are safe for both the microwave and dishwasher, resist temperature swings, and resist scratching and dulling. Care should be taken when placing ice cubes in an empty glass, and metal spoons for stirring are discouraged. --Ann Bieri
Editor's Note: Because each glass is mouth-blown, each one may have slight differences in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. You should also avoid using metal spoons or placing the glass into a crowded dishwasher.

Too fragile and does not maintain a hot beverage:
Set of 2 Pavina 12-ounce double wall cooler/beer glasses

Second, the glass only was able to keep my beverage warm, not hot, for 45 minutes. If you read the description carefully, it first says; "the glass is held together tighter, resulting in a stronger glass" however it goes on to tell you all the ways to "be gentle with the glass".

glassware:
I love these glasses, the do not sweat. And although they seem fragile they seam to hold up fine.
Great Thermo Glasses:
We have ordered these glasses several times and love them. They make great wine glasses.
home and comercial use:
I first ordered a set of these for a coffee shop I was managing. They are beautiful and adds a real luxury to espresso making. Our customers loved them and the staff loved using them.
I then ordered a set for myself to have at home. I love pulling a shot into them. they are beautiful. Also, very helpful in teaching staff what a proper shot should look like because you can see the 3 leves of the shot clearly.
