Arch Set of 2 Whisky Glasses
Design by Ali Bakova
The NUDE Arch set of whisky glasses brings whimsical elegance to the idea of traditional glassware. Crafted from clear lead-free crystal, the classic heavy-bottomed silhouette gets a modern twist — courtesy of the beautifully curved base, designed to reflect the light in a delightful swirl. The perfect gift for the discerning drinker.
INTRODUCING
Ali Bakova
Turkish industrial designer Ali Bakova works from a studio in the large industrial zone of Istanbul’s business district, Maslak, where creative offices and auto repair shops – designers and industry – live side-by-side. In 2015, Bakova, who is also one of the city’s most respected design educators, co-curated an exhibition entitled Atölye Maslak Maker Culture during which the small-scale production of artistic and artisanal objects was conducted on-site, using 3D printers. Bakova’s work can be playful – he may fashion a cat from Iznik tiles or a wooden chair taking its cues from the iconic Galata Bridge – but it also focuses on purity, what is essential and smart functionality.
