Italesse combines contemporary Italian design with thin, lightweight European crystal. The collection includes both machine-made and mouth-blown options, with shapes designed to balance the wine in the glass while remaining comfortable to hold and drink from.

Italesse glasses use versatile “universal” red and white wine shapes rather than a separate glass for every grape variety. This makes them a practical choice for wine drinkers, tasting rooms and restaurants that want refined stemware that can serve a broad range of wines without needing a broad range of different glasses.

Machine-made Italesse glasses offer consistency and value for frequent use, while mouth-blown glasses are lighter and more delicate, with the refinement associated with artisan crystal. The best choice depends on how often you use the glasses and how much you value a very thin, lightweight feel.

Yes. Italesse is widely used in professional wine service because its universal shapes, thin rims and balanced construction work well across many wine styles. IWA offers options suited to both high-volume service and more elevated tasting experiences.
