About Luigi Bormioli
The Bormioli name has been synonymous with glassmaking in Parma, Italy since the 14th century, but the modern company was founded in 1946 by Luigi Bormioli, who took it to international prominence. The family has continued his mission ever since: great design, traditional Italian craftsmanship and new-age glassmaking technology in service of glassware of the highest quality. That technology is not a marketing line — Luigi Bormioli's own R&D produced some of the industry's landmark lead-free crystal formulations, engineered so glasses hold their clarity and brilliance through thousands of commercial dishwasher cycles. The same expertise is behind the perfume bottles and spirits decanters the company produces for some of the world's most recognisable luxury names, and today Luigi Bormioli glassware is sold in more than 120 countries.
Custom Luigi Bormioli Wine Glasses, Tumblers & Beer Glasses at Supply Crew
Supply Crew stocks a curated Luigi Bormioli collection of ten styles across three Italian-designed ranges. The Optica range pairs a 1920s retro look with contemporary styling through its signature ribbed profile, and covers a full service: the 700ml Optica Bordeaux Glass and 550ml Optica Chardonnay Glass for wine, the 210ml Optica Flute for sparkling, the 300ml Optica Cocktail Glass and 465ml Optica Cognac Glass for the bar, plus the stemless 570ml Optica HiBall and 450ml Optica Stemless Low Ball tumblers. The Atelier range is designed and made in Italy for superior aroma diffusion, with an angled bowl that adds surface area — available as a 610ml and a 440ml lead-free crystal wine glass. And from the Premium Bormioli range, the 540ml Birratique Beer Glass uses its distinctive flared shape to build the taste experience of the beer inside it.
Luigi Bormioli Craftsmanship & Quality
What separates Luigi Bormioli from ordinary promotional glassware is that every shape is designed to do something to the drink. The Atelier's angled bowl exists to open up aroma; the Birratique's silhouette exists to sharpen a beer's flavour; the Optica's ribbing catches light the way cut glass does, at a fraction of the fragility. Underneath sits lead-free crystal, made in Italy, engineered for the punishing reality of commercial service — thousands of wash cycles without clouding, and far better impact resistance than the delicacy of the look suggests. For a brand putting its logo on a glass, that durability is the whole point: this is glassware that stays in a customer's cupboard or a venue's rack for years, rather than a gift that gets chipped and quietly retired.

Luigi Bormioli FAQs
+ Can I get Luigi Bormioli glassware with my logo?
Yes. Supply Crew supplies genuine Luigi Bormioli glassware custom branded with your logo, with printing and laser engraving both suited to glass — printing for colour logos, engraving for a permanent frosted mark that survives years of washing. Our team will recommend the best method and placement for your artwork and the style you choose.

Browse the products above for full capacities and details.
+ Is Luigi Bormioli glassware made in Italy?
Yes — Luigi Bormioli is an Italian glassmaker based in Parma, where the Bormioli name has been associated with glassmaking since the 14th century and the modern company was founded in 1946. The Optica, Atelier and Birratique ranges are designed and made in Italy, which is exactly the provenance that makes them worth branding for premium corporate gifts.
+ Is Luigi Bormioli glassware dishwasher safe?
Luigi Bormioli's lead-free crystal is engineered specifically for commercial dishwasher use, holding its clarity and brilliance through thousands of wash cycles rather than clouding the way ordinary glass does. That's why the brand is a fixture in hotels, restaurants and bars — and why a branded glass still looks like a premium gift a year after it's given.
+ What is the difference between the Optica and Atelier ranges?
Optica is the decorative range — a vertically ribbed profile that reinterprets a 1920s look in a modern glass, spanning wine, sparkling, cocktail, cognac and stemless tumblers. Atelier is the tasting range: clean lead-free crystal with an angled bowl designed for superior aroma diffusion and extra surface area. Choose Optica when you want the glass to be part of the venue's look, Atelier when the wine is the point.
+ Is branded glassware a good corporate gift?
Branded glassware is one of the highest-retention corporate gifts available, because a good glass gets used weekly and never gets thrown out. It works particularly hard for wineries, breweries, distilleries and venues serving their own product, for end-of-year client gifting, and for awards and hospitality events — and an Italian-made Luigi Bormioli glass signals a level of care that a generic promotional tumbler simply doesn't.
+ Can I see an artwork proof before production?
Yes — twice over. You can Design & Create your own mockup instantly on any product page to see your logo on the product before you even request a quote. Then, once your order is confirmed, Supply Crew provides a detailed artwork proof for your approval — placement, size and finish — before production begins.
+ What is the minimum order quantity for custom Luigi Bormioli glassware?
Minimum order quantities across the Luigi Bormioli range are 16 or 24 units depending on the style — the Optica Cocktail Glass and Optica Bordeaux Glass start at 16, and the remaining styles at 24. The exact minimum order quantity is confirmed on each individual product page.
+ How long do custom Luigi Bormioli orders take to produce and deliver?
Custom Luigi Bormioli orders typically take 2–4 weeks for production and delivery, depending on the styles selected, the branding method and order volume. Our team will confirm an exact turnaround estimate once your order and artwork are finalised — worth planning ahead for cellar door launches, awards nights and end-of-year client gifting.
