Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Mikasa Axis 16-Ounce Red Wine Glass, Set of 4
Customer Review: Don't buy it.
Summary: 1 Stars
The metal stem comes off the glass during the first hand-washing and it seems nearly impossible to get it back on using clear glue. I am very disappointed and would never have bought this item if I knew this would happen.
Description of Mikasa Axis 16-Ounce Red Wine Glass, Set of 4
Mikasa's "AXIS" barware collection is designed by David Rockwell, the noted architect and designer best known for his work with restaurants, hotels and set designs all over the world. The AXIS group uses Rockwell's cross-disciplanary approach by combining metals and glass into a contemporary bar and entertaining statement for your home. The soft curves offset by the high-tech metal work make this a unique and exciting, and very useable, bar collection.A dynamic combination of the retro and the futuristic, the Axis barware collection from Mikasa is the stylish invention of renowned designer David Rockwell. Famous for his work on restaurants and hotels, Rockwell takes his styling cues for Axis from the age of space exploration, combining tilted planes, flowing lines, and lustrous finishes. Blending attractive metal alloy with clear glass, Axis pieces stand out from plain beverage collections in both their form and usability.
A dramatic way to serve Malbec or Cabernet, the Axis red wine glass features a gleaming metal stem softly angled at the top to cup a deep glass bowl. The piece's broad foot adds flair and stability, and the stem is attractively slender. Packaged in a set of four, the glass holds 16 ounces and should be washed by hand. --Emily Bedard
