Cesel Wine glass plastic material / Ø 7.4 x H 9.8 cm - Patricia Urquiola

Cesel Wine Glass: Chiseled Design Reimagined by Patricia Urquiola

With Cesel, Patricia Urquiola reimagines the wine glass in a stemless version that’s more fluid and contemporary. Its dimensions of Ø 7.4 x H 9.8 cm and compact silhouette make it suitable for both wine and other beverages. Its textured surface is inspired by traditional chiseling and transforms transparency into a play of shifting reflections. Made from food-safe recycled PMMA, this glass combines everyday functionality with a distinctive decorative flair.

A texture inspired by chiseling

The name “Cesel” refers to chiseling, a decorative technique historically associated with metalwork. Patricia Urquiola transposes its rhythm and incisions onto a transparent material. The surface becomes vibrant, irregular, and expressive, while retaining the visual lightness characteristic of clear glass.

The reflections shift depending on the light and the beverage served. Every movement reveals new nuances and depths, creating a subtle balance between industrial precision and the evocation of artisanal craftsmanship.

A stemless wine glass, more versatile

Designed as a stemless wine glass, Cesel offers a more casual approach to serving. Its compact shape makes it a welcome addition to an everyday table setting and allows it to be used for water, cocktails, or other beverages as desired. This versatility makes it a piece that’s easy to incorporate into settings beyond just wine service.

Cesel is available in clear, green, blue, and amber. The clear version fully showcases the texture. The green adds a botanical tone, the blue accentuates the sense of depth, and the amber warms the table with luminous reflections.

Is the Cesel glass meant only for wine?

No. Its stemless design makes it versatile enough to hold wine, water, or other beverages. Its short stature gives it a more casual look than a traditional stemmed wine glass, making it easy to use every day.

Is the Cesel glass suitable for everyday use?

Yes. Made from food-safe Recycled PMMA, the Cesel glass is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. It is not microwave-safe.

Can you mix and match the different Cesel colors?

Yes. The clear, green, blue, and amber versions can be used as a monochromatic set or mixed and matched around the table. Mixing the colors accentuates the play of light and adds rhythm to the table setting, while using a single color creates a more uniform look.

With Cesel, Patricia Urquiola gives the wine glass a more contemporary and spontaneous look. An expressive, versatile, and easy-going piece that transforms every drink into an opportunity to play with light and color.
