In the world of drinks, there are strict rules for serve ware, and it’s considered blasphemous to break them. This makes barware predictable—Old-fashioned glasses for whisky cocktails, Martini glasses for Martinis and tall glasses for high-balls. But, one can add a touch of whimsy with something handmade, vintage and sleek. Here are five brands for an elevated aesthetic experience at home:
1. Ice globes for bar-style cocktails
Bartenders pay attention to details and ice—preferably crystal clear—is one of them. Whisky sours, Negronis, Old Fashioned, Boulevardier and scotch on rocks go into Old Fashioned glasses with large chunks of ice. Make it a sleek experience with one two of these globes frozen in ball ice-trays.

2. Timeless handblown glass decanter
Decanters let you spirits and wines breathe for a long and languid dinner. This handblown glass beauty from Ikai Asai made in Firozabad is inspired by traditional Indian utensils. As they say, it will never go out of style.
