Half Pint Power by Ari Bendersky
Your favorite pint glass just got more useful. From Innermost comes a stylish and functional half-pint mug. Currently available only in the UK, the mug comes in white and black and has a twin wall so hot beverages (read: green tea or a vanilla latte) won’t burn your hands and cold beverages stay cool like they’re supposed to. The mugs run £9.95 each (about $18) and look to be worth every penny (pence?). Innermost is also guilty of producing the Pull-Up Vase and the Ghost Vase, two very cool, fairly functional and stylish pieces. Check out the whole line of lamp shades, vases and homewares on their website.

Glass Beverage Bottles
This version of a glass bottle in the shape of a plastic one continues the trend of doing up disposables in nicer materials and is, indeed, a Crate and Barrel knock-off of a similar concept by Roost (also makers of home furnishings but without the corporate baggage). It does however offer two design differences that caught our attention. The option of a smaller size...

Etienne Meneau's Little Heart Glass
After making a name for himself with a series of unusually-shaped carafes, Etienne Meneau is doing it again with his newest glass piece, named Petit Coeur (little heart). We like how the design recreates the heart in an abstract way by reinterpreting the atriums and ventricles. And is that spout the aorta? Fill it with wine and the puns/comparisons are endless. Wine is good...

Riedel Decanters
New from the generations-old family glassware-makers Riedel, this series of decanters takes its inspiration from birds for a collection that's as striking as it is functional. Designed by Maximillian Riedel (also responsible for leading the stemless revolution) and his father Georg and handmade by artisans in their Austrian factory, the leaded crystal vessels are all aerodynamic lines and dramatic dimensions. While the Swan (above...

The new Beaker Juice Glass from cb2 is another great example of reworking the classic design of disposable everyday items by using high-quality materials. Made from heat-tempered chem lab beaker glass, the "Pixie cups" are hand-blown, transforming the humble paper cup into an attractive conversation piece.
