If you're familiar with the work of designer Martin Jakobsen then the Pokeball cocktail glass will look strikingly similar to something you've seen before. Jakobsen is the creator of the Quido, a spherical cocktail glass that stands on its side to avoid spills. The Pokeball cocktail glass has the same shape as the Quido but cannot stand on its side without the aid of the cork which closes it. And unlike the designer's previous creation this cocktail glass is a million times geekier.
Even casual fans of the Poekmon series will be able to immediately get the reference this glass is making. Yet even with its geeky credentials the Pokeball cocktail glass still manages to look elegant and refined. The glass is for sale on Jakobsen's website with a price tag of $34 per glass.
