Orrefors by Karl Lagerfeld Softdrink - A unique collaboration in design and craftsmanship
A unique collaboration in design and craftsmanship
“I hate to drink my diet coke in heavy glasses. For me part of the pleasure is the perfect lightness and quality of a glass”
During the creative process in developing the first stemware collection, Karl Lagerfeld got the idea of making a special glass, suitable for his favorite drink, Diet Coke.
All glasses in the series are handmade and mouth blown in the famous glass factories in Sweden, making every glass unique. Just like the glasses in the first collection, the diet Coke glass is clean lined, subtle and functional. The colors are clear, black and milky white and the series typifies the Karl Lagerfeld ethos of ultra-strict lines. And in the spirit of the designer’s well- known practicality, the series also includes monogrammed coasters to prevent any trace of an errant drop on an immaculate table cloth.
