Bladerunner Glass – The Highball tumbler from the Cibi collection

The Highball tumbler from the Cibi collection, known as the Bladerunner Glass, is a handcrafted crystal glass designed for long drinks, yet it also perfectly complements non-alcoholic beverages with ice.

The CIBI Collection

Crafted by the renowned Italian designer Cini Boeri, the CIBI collection is distinguished by its X-shaped tapering, which not only adds movement but also facilitates an easy and firm grip. This visionary CIBI collection has rightfully earned itself a place in cinematic history.

On a spring day in 1981, an unidentified customer entered the “Magic Crystal by Arnolfo di Cambio” boutique in Beverly Hills and purchased several glasses from the CIBI collection. The following year, Ridley Scott’s visionary masterpiece, Blade Runner, made its debut in cinemas. Deckard, the android hunter portrayed by Harrison Ford, savours his Johnny Walker Black Label whisky from the old fashioned glass designed by Cini Boeri for Arnolfo di Cambio.

Designer Cini Boeri

Born in Milan and graduating from the Polytechnic University in 1951, Cini Boeri quickly caught the attention of design master Giò Ponti, her mentor, who encouraged her to paint. Later, Cini Boeri began collaborating with Marco Zanuso, solidifying her position as one of the leading Italian designers of the latter half of the 20th century.
