Milan 2014: London designer Lee Broom will launch these glass and marble vessels during a dinner party in the window of a Milanese design boutique next week.

Lee Broom‘s On the Rock wine and champagne glasses feature crystal bowls perched on top of Carrera marble bases.

“Fusing the delicate crystal with the heavy marble base plays with the idea of balance – both structurally and through the contrasting materials,” said Broom.

The surfaces of both materials are curved where they meet, so the glass looks like it could topple off.

The champagne coupe has a wider and flatter cup than the wine glass, as well as a taller, thinner stem.

The collection will be launched during the dinner at Spazio Pontaccio, Via Pontaccio 18, in Milan’s Brera district on 8 April, before the showroom opens to the public the day after.

A limited series of 30 wine glasses and 30 champagne glasses will also be available to buy from a pop-up shop at the boutique, along with a selection of Broom’s designs.
