marta barware

less than minimal. Stylish and micro-thin, Marta is the mere suggestion of a glass, especially considering its grand size. -Large capacity -Machine made glassware -Dishwasher-safe -Made in Poland

Superfine
Date:05/14/2013
I bought some of these years ago and used them constantly with great pleasure. I lost a few from normal attrition. When I wanted to replenish my set, I was pleased to be directed to CB2 by an artisan who uses them for custom gift engraving. I’ve always enjoyed the lightness of the glasses, and the amazement of guests who were almost afraid to use them in a normal fashion. The chill from a cold drink is refreshing, but not the shock of aluminum cans or tumblers. They remind one of the lightness of German Christmas tree ornaments. But in fact, they are not any more easily broken than the heavier barware that I also have, but hardly ever use. They take normal knocks in the sink and the dishwasher in stride.

Pass it up!
Date:05/03/2013
Bought these glasses strictly on line and was really surprised to see how thin they really are. Wouldn't of purchased if I were in the store and could handle them. Already have a chip in one after a week or so. Good thing they were cheap because we will break all of these very quickly!

Delicate and fresh, butt not fragile
Date:04/27/2013
They stack easily, and have a great feel in your hand. They are made of very thin glass, but the material is strong and has a decent weight to it. They are larger than I expected, but, because of their airy quality, do not seem excessive or bulky in any way.

This review is frommarta cooler.
Too thin and easily broken
Date:04/27/2013
I love the look of these glasses, but they just don't hold up well. One was broken a few minutes ago from an ice cube coming out of the ice dispenser. Another broke when it tipped over in the sink. So we've lost 25% of the our set in two months. I'll be surprised if the rest make it until the end of the year.

Don't Worry - They are Great!
Date:03/04/2013
Everyone always asks me if I am nervous about having such thin glasses, but it is seriously not an issue! These glasses are just as durable as another glass, they are just really thin, which makes them look great. Don't worry - buy them!

Great glassware
Date:03/04/2013
Fantastic, stylish barware. We bought a full set of the entire series and are very happy. The glasses are very light in the hand while remaining more durable and less prone to breaking than some of our older, heavier glasses. It's part of what makes them unique, along with the shapes and thinness.

Marta Double Old-Fashioned Glass
Date:03/04/2013
Great for cocktails, soft drinks, wine, and even dessert. We knocked ours around to test toughness and they passed with flying colors. Love that they're dishwasher safe! Delicate-looking, but sturdy, and so elegant in their simplicity!

My Favourite Glasses Ever.
Date:02/26/2013
I bought these almost 8 years ago and they are absolutely my favourite glasses ever. They are surprisingly durable despite being so thin.

Want to have a Prune Bloody Mary in your own home?
Date:02/22/2013
I love, love the drinks at Prune. Then I realized that exactly one half of my enjoyment was from the glasses. So thin. So crisp, if a glass can be crisp. To echo another reviewer, drinks just taste better in these glasses. I have about 12 in various sizes and lengths, never broken one and they bring joy to my drinking experience every time...I've even hoarded up in case they ever discontinue them!

elegant minimalism
Date:02/22/2013
Love these, could easily be replaced at the price but no need as they are deceptively sturdy. Always asked where i got them. I reused the packing materials as gift wrap, was also asked where I got that, lol.

THIS WAS A HARD ITEM TO FIND...
Date:01/22/2013
I looked and looked for 5 months until I found exactly what I was looking for on CB2!
These glasses can be used for everyday, evening cocktail. Thin glass feels amazing to the touch. I could not be happier. They arrived beautifully packaged for shipping and were perfect. These are much sturdier than I ever thought possible. Sold for life!

This review is frommarta double old-fashioned.
Gorgeous!
Date:03/04/2013
I love the look of these glasses. My mom keeps saying that she thinks they're plastic because she's never seen such thin glasses. I've used them for a few months now and have granite countertops, and I still have most of them. One broke somehow, and another broke after the boyfriend knocked it off the counter and onto the tile, where it bounced *twice* before breaking on the third bounce. These glasses are much stronger than they appear.

RELIEVED In LOVE
Date:02/28/2013
After reading reviews that these aren't made as sturdy as originally, I delayed a purchase. When free ship was offered I went for it but only ordered a few of Old Fashioned with the Coolers. I am SO relieved and HAPPY with these glasses! I LOVE the look, the feel and function.l I've been careful with them, not using the glass to push on the water dispenser, etc. but it's not inconvenient to take that caution. I will buy more to make it complete set. These are SIMPLY beautiful!

I love these. They almost make me want to have another drink, because they make drinks look so good. The feel light as air, but they seem to be quite strong. I've been using them for over 6 months and haven't broken one yet.

Happy that you have started to sell the thinner glasses again. The last time i bought them I was very disapointed with the thick almost jelly glass quality. I have just received a new order and they are the original quality. But i am sorry that you have discontinued the smaller juice glasses. They were perfect for wine and I would love to buy some more.

Great looking glasses
Date:12/17/2012
I recently purchased the Marta glasses to use as everyday water glasses. I knew they were thin and fragile, but I love the way they look. I have had them for about two weeks and today when I emptied my dishwasher I noticed that one of my glasses had a crack in the side. I thought I was being careful, but I guess something was touching it because it cracked in the middle of the glass, not along the rim as usually happens to glasses. Oh well, they are still really nice glasses and they weren't expensive. Just know that they require special handling if you are going to use them every day.

Worth It
Date:12/14/2012
Ordered these with hesitation about a month ago, and decided to really put 'em through the ringer to see how well they'd hold up. Two were chipped upon delivery, but that's to be expected with any glass order. Aside from that, they've held up fine!
We hand wash and dry on a rack. Other, more expensive glasses from Crate & Barrel didn't hold up well to that, so I'm pumped that these do!
They felt delicate at first, but now our old ones feel heavy and clunky.
Love these!
