RCR Circus Series Stackable Glass
Circus: RCR's New Luxion® Collection for Professional Service
With Circus, RCR Cristalleria Italiana launches a collection of professional glasses that unites contemporary design, functionality and practicality in the foodservice sector. Debuted at Frankfurt's Ambiente Fair 2026, the line draws inspiration from the world of the circus: balance, precision, lightness and reliability—the same values that have characterised RCR's production philosophy for decades.
Three Versatile Models for Every Service
The collection comprises three glasses designed to meet the needs of bars, restaurants and hotels:
- High Ball – perfect for long cocktails, soft drinks, juices and mocktails at the bar
- DOF (Double Old Fashioned) – ideal for spirits, water, spirit-forward cocktails and tastings
- Rock – versatile container for cocktails, finger food, spoon desserts, ice creams and garnishes
Each model has been designed to offer maximum versatility: perfect for fast service, in the mise en place of mise à la table, and in enhancing beverage presentation.
Intelligent Stackability: Space and Efficiency
One of Circus's strengths is the stackability system developed by RCR. All glasses stack stably and precisely, even together with other compatible references from the RCR range such as the Universum line.
For professionals and high-volume operations, this feature enables:
- optimising warehouse and workstation space
- speeding up service and daily organisation
- reducing bulk without compromising service elegance
- improving mise en place management
Luxion®: Superior Sonorous Glass Made in Italy
The entire Circus collection is made from Luxion®, the superior sonorous glass patented by RCR, a symbol of quality and Made in Italy innovation.
Thanks to the presence of noble oxides in the composition, Luxion® guarantees:
- exceptional transparency and superior brilliance
- high resistance to impact and intensive use in professional kitchens
- perfect suitability for professional dishwasher washing
- 100% recyclable and sustainable material
These characteristics enhance every beverage: colours, reflections and presentation remain impeccable even after repeated cycles of service.
High Ball: The Glass for Fast Service
The High Ball model is designed for the bar and fast service of long cocktails, long drinks, soft drinks and cold beverages. The elegant shape and the ratio between capacity and stability make it ideal for bars, lounges, and bar service even in high-traffic situations.
DOF: The Versatility of Spirit-Forward Cocktails
The DOF (Double Old Fashioned) is the quintessential glass for spirit-forward cocktails such as Manhattan, Sazerac and Classic Old Fashioned. Its compact shape favours presentation with ice and the correct oxygenation of the drink. Perfect also for water, spirits served neat and small tastings, the DOF adapts to sophisticated menus and high-level bars.
Rock: From Cocktails to Finger Food, a Versatile Container
The Rock model expands its applications by becoming a refined container also for finger food, spoon desserts, ice creams, fruit salads, garnishes and tastings. This versatility makes it valuable both in kitchen and in the dining room, particularly appreciated by pastry chefs, ice cream makers and professionals seeking a single glass for multiple services.
Designed with Professionals
Circus is not merely a line of glasses: it is a tool designed for bartenders, restaurateurs, hoteliers and chefs. Every detail stems from direct consultation with foodservice operators, with the aim of combining aesthetics, ergonomics, practicality and durability over time.
With Circus, RCR transforms the glass into a true work tool, capable of improving service experience, enhancing every presentation and meeting the most demanding needs of professional foodservice and food & beverage, while maintaining the excellence of Italian design and the reliability that characterises the brand.
