Design and Build
The OJA stemware is manufactured from titanium-doped crystal, shaped through a 27-step hand-blown sequence that eliminates structural seams between the bowl and the pulled stem. Standing at 9.5 inches tall with a narrow maximum width of 2.6 inches, the physical profile favors vertical reach over wide-aperture spread. The centerpiece of its construction is the 0.8mm rim edge, which aligns with the tasting rule that a minimal physical boundary between glass and palate enhances liquid delivery far more effectively than external aeration tools. At 4.75 inches, the stem provides adequate clearance for a full hand grasp, isolating the liquid contents from ambient skin temperature. The single-piece pulled construction prevents the stress cracks typically seen at welded contact points on machine-molded stems. However, users must account for the mechanical fragility of such thin walls, which necessitates delicate handling and rules out mechanical dishwasher cycles entirely.
