Is it OK to dance on the table? Absolutely! Last year, SIEGER and Ichendorf created STAND UP, a very literally moving crystal glass collection. For the delicate tumblers, designer Michael Sieger drew inspiration from the playful lightness of a roly-poly toy. Each time they’re touched, they rock gently back and forth before regaining their balance.

Now the collection is being expanded with a new beer and long drink glass, which is also ideal for cocktails. Elegantly curved and standing over 12 cm tall, it too dances spiritedly on the table. The handcrafted crystal glass is perfectly balanced to ensure the drink inside doesn’t spill. That’s made possible by the precisely curved base, only a tiny point of which rests on the table. The point is decorated with a finely engraved star, which adds another playful touch to the tumbler.

Also joining the collection is a small carafe, which complements the larger carafe and can be used for wine or water.
