Product Description
The Luigi Bormioli Speakeasy Swing double old fashioned glass is a faceted tumbler designed for bars and restaurants that want a distinctive, considered presentation without sacrificing durability. At 450ml capacity, it sits comfortably in the double old fashioned category — practical for spirits served over ice, short cocktails, and premium soft drinks.
These glasses are made from Luigi Bormioli's SON.hyx lead-free crystal, which offers notably higher clarity and mechanical resistance than standard soda-lime glass. In a busy bar environment, that resistance to knocks and impacts matters — glassware that chips or clouds quickly creates both a safety concern and an ongoing replacement cost. The titanium-reinforced rim addresses one of the most common failure points in commercial glassware, reducing rim chipping through the dishwasher cycle and during handling by bar staff.
For operations running a commercial glasswasher, the confirmed 4,000-cycle dishwasher rating is a practical benchmark. It gives purchasing managers a realistic sense of lifespan rather than a vague durability claim. Key operational advantages include:
- Titanium-reinforced rim reduces chipping and rim breakage in high-turnover service
- SON.hyx crystal maintains clarity and sparkle over extended dishwasher use
- Lead-free crystal compliant with food safety expectations for licensed premises
- Faceted design provides grip as well as visual interest on the bar pass
- Pack of 24 suits opening orders or topping up an existing set
There are no specialist installation requirements — these are standard glassware that will work with any commercial glasswasher running appropriate glassware cycles and chemistry. Storage space per glass is relatively modest given the dimensions, though as with any wide-base tumbler, racking and storage configuration is worth considering when ordering in volume.
These glasses are well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, brasseries, and casual dining operations that want glassware with a premium look and a practical lifespan. For very high-volume venues or operations that experience above-average breakage rates, it is worth discussing quantity and stocking levels before committing to a single pack size.
If you'd like a steer on whether this range fits your service style or how it compares to other options we carry, the team is happy to talk it through.
