Double Walled Mugs

by Deleted User #9040 » Dec 14th, '07, 09:53

Does anyone know where to get double walled clear glass mugs? I like the looks of the Bodum mugs but many say they are too delicate and break easily.

I bought a cheap clear glass mug and like seeing the color of the infusion but since it is single walled it cools off fast and is not the most pleasing in appearance.

Thanks for any info.

I have a set of 9oz Bodum double walled glasses that work well with my smaller teapots. I got mine from Wegmans, but have since seen them in some random local stores as well as several places online. Maybe try something like Target or Bed Bath and Beyond? As far as being delicate, these seem fine, though I am not sure how rough you are with your tea ware.

I loved my Bodum Pavina glasses, and they held up well until I dropped them while washing. (The rounder shape of the Pavina makes them pretty slippery, so you do have to be careful. Unfortunately, a ceramic sink is not too forgiving to dropped glassware.) I don't have a dishwasher, so I don't know how they would fare in there.

Sur la Table and Williams & Sonoma do too, I think. Target carries a few Bodum products. My local one doesn't carry the Pavina glasses, but they do carry the double walled Assam, which looks a bit easier to keep a grip on when hand washing.
