Default stemless Italian wine glasses?

An Italian restaurant near where I live (that has since closed) served
red wine in a simple stemless glass. It was like a lowball glass, but a
little smaller. In Tuscany last summer, I found that this was fairly
common, but I can't find anything like it in local stores or in web
searches. Can anyone suggest where I could find some glasses like this?


thanks,

Bob

Thanks. The Riedels really look like wineglasses withut the stems, and
what I'm thinking of does come closer to a juice glass.

Searching the web for juice glasses gets me a little closer, but so far
all the ones I can find have one gimmick in their design or another. In
fact, it's easier to find gag dribble juice glasses than a plain, clear
one like the kind that Italian restaurants use. But I'll keep
looking...

There are some things where the web is not the best answer. Just go to
any big restaurant supply store, most should have 2-3 choices of
reasonable substitutes.
