Luigi Bormioli Roma 1960 Hi-Ball Glasses 400ml (24 Pack)

The Luigi Bormioli Roma 1960 hi-ball glass is a 400ml lead-free crystal glass finished with a cross-hatch embossed pattern inspired by mid-century Italian design. Produced in Italy from Luigi Bormioli's proprietary SON.hyx crystal, these glasses combine good optical clarity with a lighter weight than standard glassware of comparable size — a practical consideration when staff are handling large volumes of covers through a shift.

In a busy bar or restaurant environment, glassware takes a great deal of punishment. The Roma 1960 is rated to retain its clarity and brilliance after 4,000 commercial dishwasher cycles, which puts it well ahead of standard soda-lime glass in terms of long-term appearance and durability. The material is also lead-free, which is now a standard expectation in commercial hospitality settings.

From an operational standpoint, this glass works across a range of service contexts:

• Well suited to long cocktails, highballs, and mixed drinks in bar service
• Practical for soft drinks and water in casual dining and café environments
• The embossed finish adds visual character without affecting pour balance or grip
• Lightweight construction reduces fatigue for bar and floor staff during long service periods
• Dishwasher safe and rated for high-cycle commercial use

The pack quantity of 24 is a reasonable starting point for smaller bars or as a top-up order for established operations, though high-volume venues running continuous bar service may want to consider ordering multiple packs to maintain adequate cover through a busy evening without waiting on a glasswash cycle.
