The DOUBLE BEND glassware by MARKTHOMAS is a testament to the brand's commitment to creating exceptional wine glasses that enhance the overall tasting experience. The conical shape of the glass is not just for aesthetics; it actually optimizes the "flow behaviour" of the wine, elevating its enjoyment for the consumer. The first "bend" in the glass is strategically designed to optimize the release of aromas, allowing for proper swirling and aerating of the wine. This ensures that the unique characteristics of the wine are exposed, enhancing its overall flavour profile. The area above the second "bend" concentrates the released aromas towards both the nose and palate, further enhancing the sensory experience. Despite the unbelievably thin walls and a uniquely "weightless" feel, the glasses are intended for daily use and are remarkably stable. The base or "foot" of the glass has a larger diameter than usual, providing additional stability. Each glass is meticulously crafted with precision and quality in mind, demanding the expertise of skilled glassblowers. The Double Bend product line includes wine glasses specifically designed for "Allround," "Red" and "Sweet" wines. Additionally, the collection features elegant decanters and classically shaped water glasses, catering to a variety of beverage preferences. From production to quality assurance and final shipment, every MARKTHOMAS glass undergoes a meticulous process. Each glass is unique and must pass through multiple hands before acceptance. This traditional handcrafted approach, as opposed to machine-made products, infuses the glasses with a distinct character and soul, thanks to the individual work ethic of the glass artisans. The glasses are suitable for frequent dishwasher use without losing their clarity, as no lead oxide is added during production.
The glass series from MARKTHOMAS reflects a combination of traditional European handicraft skills – based on centuries of knowledge and experience – with modern, innovative design.
