Hennessy - Glasses

The Hennessy glassware collection is a commission we are particularly proud of. Designed for one of the world's most storied cognac houses, the collection comprises both lowball and highball glasses, each built around the same defining design language. The most distinctive element is the rippled surface that runs across the body of each glass, a subtle but immediately recognisable texture that catches the light in a way that feels entirely suited to the ritual of drinking fine cognac. Each piece has a substantial weighted base that gives it a grounded, considered presence in the hand, while the crystal construction brings both clarity and elegance to the form. The Hennessy marque is carried discreetly on each glass. The lowball is designed for serving cognac neat or on the rocks, while the tall, narrow highball is ideal for longer cognac-based drinks. The collection is available through Hennessy's Clos19 platform and has since become a widely recognised piece of branded design in its own right.
