Luigi Bormioli Roma 1960 Cocktail Glasses 300ml (Pack of 12)

The Luigi Bormioli Roma 1960 cocktail glasses are a 300ml lead-free crystal glass with a cross-hatch embossed body, produced in Italy under the brand’s SON.hyx manufacturing process. The result is a glass that combines a vintage aesthetic with the practical performance requirements of a busy bar or restaurant environment.

In commercial service, the Roma 1960 holds up well. The SON.hyx crystal formula is engineered to resist the repeated thermal and mechanical stress of commercial dishwashers, with Luigi Bormioli rating these glasses to 4,000 wash cycles without meaningful loss of clarity or brilliance. For a cocktail glass that sits at the more decorative end of the spectrum, that level of durability is genuinely useful in a high-turnover setting.

From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are:

• Consistent clarity and sparkle maintained through extended commercial dishwasher use
• Lead-free crystal construction — no leaching concerns and safe for commercial food service
• Lightweight build reduces handling fatigue during busy service periods
• Uniform presentation across a pack of 12, useful for consistent table or bar setups
• Made in Italy to a reliable manufacturing standard, with good batch-to-batch consistency

There are no particular installation requirements — these are ready to use straight from the pack. Storage space and glass rack compatibility are worth considering; at 170mm tall and 113mm in diameter, they are a mid-sized cocktail glass and should fit standard commercial glass racks, though it is worth checking rack cell dimensions against your existing storage setup before ordering in volume.

The Roma 1960 is well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurant bar programmes where presentation matters but glassware also needs to survive the demands of daily commercial washing. For very high-volume venues turning over large quantities of glassware each service, it is worth considering whether a larger pack size or a simpler tumbler profile would be more practical alongside these.

If you are putting together a full glassware range or are unsure which glass suits a particular cocktail list or cover count, the team is happy to talk it through.
