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. |
