Sophie Lou Jacobsen Colored Glassware and Unique Cocktail Glasses

Sophie Lou Jacobsen is a French-American designer based in New York City. She founded her brand in 2019 and works mostly in glass, designing objects for everyday use. Jacobsen believes the shape and color of a cup can change the mood of the moment it is used in. Her colored glassware is made for small daily habits, like pouring an espresso in the morning or setting out drinks before friends sit down to dinner. Many pieces come in pairs of two different colors, so colored wine glasses on the same table look deliberately mismatched. Her cocktail and martini glasses follow suit, and the contrast in each pair makes them unique cocktail glasses for a round of martinis. The aperitif glasses are sized for a short pour of something bitter before a meal.

Her breakfast pieces make a kitchen table colorful, with glass espresso cups and teacups finished with curled details inspired by continental breakfast service. This is whimsical glassware with a practical job to do, and it is meant to come out of the cabinet often. Because Sophie Lou Jacobsen produces in small, limited runs, new colors and shapes appear throughout the year while earlier ones sell through.

Her colored stemware pairs easily with the rest of our tableware, and her glass candleholders sit well beside a few tapers from our candles on a low lit dinner table. Like our clothing sewn in small runs in New York City factories, this designer glassware from someone working in the same city, made in limited numbers, meets that same standard.
