Carafe, EUR €150, US $219, INT $175
Crafted from lead-free crystal, the modern and minimal Chill collection is defined by its stylish marble base designed to keep one's whisky cool without the need for ice. Pared down to its bare essentials, the result is a celebration of rich, natural materials and simple silhouettes.
The Finesse Grid glass combines a minimal silhouette with an intricate graphic pattern etched into the crystalline surface, giving the design a surprising depth and texture. The pared back silhouette gives it a timeless and versatile quality, lending itself to water or soft drinks as much as whisky.
Whisky Glass L, EUR €118, US $174, INT $139
Whisky Glass S, EUR €104, US $152, INT $121
Designed for optimal taste and flavour enhancement, the Camp range combines lead-free crystal with a distinctive brass base reminiscent of logs on a warming burning fire. The carafe's outline is clean-cut and compact, with a heavy-base and rounded neck heightening its sculptural quality.

The Caldera is the latest addition to NUDE's ever expanding whisky offering. A V-shaped motif with distinct vertical cuts adorns the tumbler base, offering a contemporary take on a traditional cut-glass tumbler. It's crafted from lead-free crystal and presented in a set of four, so whisky moments can be enjoyed with family and friends.

This handmade, minimalist whisky carafe was designed in collaboration with Finnish designer Mikko Laakkonen. Known for his use of rounded shapes and simplified geometry in furniture design, Laakkonen translated these characteristics into the curved, glass Malt bottle and accompanying wooden tray. A subtle circular indentation illustrates where the bottle should sit, leaving space alongside for a whisky glass or nibble bowl.
With its name derived from the Gaelic word for Scotland, the handmade Alba decanter pays tribute to the spiritual home of whisky. A subtle, deconstructed and hand-engraved tartan pattern adorns the heavy-bottomed base. A striking circular marble stopper, sits atop the conical neck, designed to lean omnidirectionally, inviting the whisky lover to point it towards Scotland.

Boasting an exquisitely simple silhouette, the Islands collection comprises two whisky tasting glasses of varying stem heights. Each refined flute features a gently flared rim designed to direct the drink to the tip of the tongue, amplifying its flavours. The accentuated, tulip-shaped glass with a generous base and tight mouth elevates the nosing experience, enhancing aromas and minimising the dissipation of fumes.
