Mouthblown glass has a weight and an irregularity you can feel at this size, where an ounce and a half sits in the palm. The Natalia Gold Liquor Glass is etched Italian glass with a rounded body and a gold rim, small enough for grappa, limoncello, amaro, or a single measure of whiskey after a meal. Glass with this much body holds an etched line sharply, which is harder to manage on a piece this small. The rounded shape is unusual for a cordial glass and sits comfortably between the fingers. Handwash it with mild soap, never submerged, and the etching and rim stay crisp. Bring out a tray of these at the end of a long dinner and the evening extends itself by another hour, with nobody leaving the table.
