# Jeweled Drinking Chalices William F. Boujon's Pampille Glass Glimmers With Class By Andrew Robichaud | Published 2009-06-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chic-drinking-chalices-william-f.-boujons-pampille-glass-has-glimmering-cla References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/06/09/bombay-sapphire-jewel-glass/) & [wfboujon](http://www.wfboujon.com/) I would say the classiest container in which to have a beverage would be a close battle between a crystal wine glass and the Holy Grail (OK, probably not THAT close). The second classiest would probably be a close battle between that same crystal wine glass and the Pampille Glass concept designed by William F. Boujan. This [elegant cup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/domain-glass) is more of a half glass than anything because it has no stand. The base of the Pampille glass is replaced by a [beautiful dangling Bombay Sapphire](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drink-gems). While being held, the jewel hangs for all to see and while placed down, the cup simply rests on the flat bottom surface. A lovely little design to enhance the formal environment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 30% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Jeweled Drinking Chalices:** Explore the trend of incorporating jewels into drinking vessels to add a touch of luxury and sophistication. - **Crystal Wine Glasses:** Discover the trend of using crystal wine glasses as a symbol of elegance and refinement in dining experiences. - **Elegant Cup Designs:** Uncover the trend of creating unique cup designs that enhance the formal environment and elevate the drinking experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Luxury Home Decor:** Discover the disruptive innovation opportunities in the luxury home decor industry by incorporating jewel-encrusted drinking chalices into product offerings. - **Fine Dining and Hospitality:** Explore the potential for disruptive innovation in the fine dining and hospitality industry by incorporating crystal wine glasses into upscale restaurant settings. - **Artisan Glassware:** Unleash disruptive innovation opportunities in the artisan glassware industry by designing and producing elegant cup designs that cater to the luxury market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Break-Resistant Champagne Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/champagne-glasses1.md) - [Libation-Cooling Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diamas.md) - [Five-Sided Unique Whiskey Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-whiskey-glass.md) - [Dedicated Craft Cocktail Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-cocktail-glass.md) - [Elegant Colored Glassware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colored-glassware-collection.md) - [Perfect Sound-Producing Drinkware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfect-cheers.md) - [Captivating Tonal Drinking Glassware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/podio-cup.md) - [Hand-Blown Glassware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handblown-glassware-collection.md) - [Unbreakable Wine Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unbreakable-wine-glass.md)
