About Martini Glasses:
The martini glass, with its distinctive V-shaped bowl and long stem, emerged in the 1920s, characterized by the Prohibition era and the Art Deco movement. This design is not just aesthetically pleasing but also functional in unique ways. The wide, shallow bowl was initially practical for Prohibition-era drinkers as it allowed for quick disposal of illegal alcohol if a raid occurred. This ease of spilling made it an ideal choice for speakeasies where swift action might be necessary to avoid detection by authorities.
The glass's long stem helps maintain the drink's cold temperature by preventing the heat from the drinker's hand from warming the beverage, which is crucial for enjoying a martini at its best. Additionally, the wide rim of the glass exposes more of the drink to the air, enhancing the aroma and flavour of the cocktail. Despite these advantages, the open design also means the glass is prone to spills, especially in lively or crowded environments.
Thus, the martini glass's design served both practical and stylistic purposes during the Prohibition era, blending elegance with the need for discretion.

Has the typical Nachtmann quality and all like the rest of their products that I own, but was a bit disappointed with their Martini glasses. It generates a lot of spills due to its sea like shape -deep in the middle and shallow on the edges which causes any movement to be amplified and causes spills. If I could have tried the glasses before, I would have gone for the Spigelau coupette glasses. However this is a subjective opinion, others would probably love it.
