The Luigi Bormioli Roma 1960 is a 550ml stemmed glass designed for wine and cocktail service. Its distinctive cross-hatch embossed body draws on mid-century styling, making it a practical choice for venues where the glassware is expected to contribute to the overall presentation rather than fade into the background.
Manufactured in Italy from SON.hyx lead-free crystal, the Roma 1960 offers the clarity and light refraction associated with traditional crystal while avoiding the fragility and lead content that can complicate commercial use. The material is notably lightweight for its size, which matters during extended service when front-of-house staff are handling multiple covers. Luigi Bormioli rates these glasses for up to 4,000 commercial dishwasher cycles without significant loss of clarity or brilliance — a meaningful figure in any venue running a busy glass programme.
For operators, the key practical advantages are:
- Lead-free crystal construction suitable for high-turnover commercial environments
- Dishwasher-rated to 4,000 cycles, reducing replacement frequency
- Lightweight build reduces fatigue during high-volume service
- Embossed design adds visual interest without relying on delicate surface printing
- Supplied in a pack of 24, practical for par-stock planning
The 550ml capacity suits generous wine pours, large-format cocktails, and spritz-style drinks. The glass is well suited to casual dining restaurants, cocktail bars, and hotel food and beverage operations where a degree of character in the glassware is desirable but durability remains a priority.
If you are building a glassware range across multiple drink styles or need guidance on par levels for your service volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
