Product Description
The Utopia Estrella is a 490ml hiball glass with a distinctive geometric profile influenced by art deco styling. Made from soda lime glass, it is a practical, everyday option for operators who want a presentable glass that holds up in regular service without commanding a premium price.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, hiball glasses take considerable handling — multiple turns per service, machine washing, and occasional knocks in transit. The Estrella's faceted geometry adds some structural rigidity to the sidewall, and at a pack quantity of 24 it allows operators to build adequate par stock without a significant outlay. Soda lime is the standard material across commercial glassware at this price point; it performs reliably in commercial dishwashers and is straightforward to replace when attrition occurs.
Practical points worth considering before ordering:
- Supplied in a pack of 24 — useful for stocking a single bar station or supplementing existing inventory
- Soda lime construction is compatible with standard commercial glasswashing equipment
- The geometric profile adds visual interest without making the glass difficult to grip or stack
- At 490ml, the capacity suits long mixed drinks, soft drinks, and juice service
- Replacement packs are available when breakage reduces stock below par
The Estrella is a good fit for casual dining restaurants, pub bars, hotel bars, and function venues where a styled glass is preferable to a plain cylinder but the budget does not stretch to lead-free crystal. It is less suited to fine dining settings where heavier, thinner-walled crystal options would be more appropriate.
If you are unsure how many packs to order for your service volume or want to discuss glass specifications for a specific setting, the team is happy to help you work it out before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- A rough guide for a single bar station is three to four times your maximum cover count in hiball capacity, accounting for glasses in use, in the wash, and held in reserve. For a 40-cover bar running long drinks service, two to three packs of 24 is a reasonable starting point, though higher-volume or late-night operations may need more.
- Yes. Soda lime glass is the standard material for commercial glassware and is designed to withstand the temperature cycles and detergents used in commercial glasswashers. Using the correct rinse aid dosage and ensuring the glasswasher is regularly descaled will help maintain clarity and extend the service life of the glasses.
- The Estrella is well suited to casual dining, pub bars, and function venues where a styled glass adds value without a high per-unit cost. For fine dining or cocktail bar settings where presentation is a primary concern, a lead-free crystal option with a thinner wall and greater clarity would typically be more appropriate — the team can advise on suitable alternatives.
