Holmegaard Hogla beer glass, capacity 50 cl.
Please notice: The price provides buying

Holmegaard was re-launching the Hogla beer
glass in 2007.
Beer has become a drink for connoisseurs. And
at last beer experts have a glass that
matches the character and history of their
traditional golden beverage. In 2007
Holmegaard was launching Hogla, a beer glass
designed in 1928 by a legendary figure in
Danish glass, Jacob E. Bang.
"Hogla" is a very significant name for
Holmegaard's "new" or retro glass: it is a
contraction of "Holmegaard Glass". The glass
and the name were both thought up by Jacob E.
Bang in 1928, and he was ahead of his time
with the beer glass. Hogla could have been
designed specifically with critical modern
beer drinkers in mind, since they demand
solid, traditional skills from the makers of
both their glasses and the drinks they pour
into them.
Jacob E. Bang's ambition was to create a
glass that was functional, with none of the
curlicues and unnecessary ornamentation of
the day. The result was this solid glass,
far stronger than the romantic glasses of the
time, because the bowl and stem are blown in
a single piece. Jacob E. Bang's genius
enabled him to design with a twinkle in his
eye, and this glass is far more than purely
functional. The disk-shaped thickening of the
stem where the goblet meets the foot does
more than simply strengthening the glass and
marking the place where the glassblower
attached the foot. It adds a touch of
imposing elegance to the streamlined form of
the glass.
