About this deal

Sci-fi movies have covered so much ground since the first film’s release in 1982 that reimagining the future is a tough job if you want to be original. The glassware will also appeal to whisky drinkers everywhere, particularly those with an interest in stylish design and traditional craftsmanship.

Throughout the movie, Harrison Ford, starring as Deckard, sips his Johnny Walker Black Label right from this stylish, angular double old fashioned glass. Among their thousands of design offerings, we can always spot a selection of fabulous furniture classics featured in some of our favourite movies. When one mentions Blade Runner, countless scenes and lines from the film that have gone down in history recur in the memory, one of which is surely that of Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) investigating the Replicants of the Tyrell Corporation drinking whiskey in the Double Old Fashion glass.Although enamored with her work, Stelline is confined within an isolated dome, only visible through a visitor window; due to a ‘compromised immune system’, meaning that if she were to leave, she would die and the sole reason she is not off-world. While the glassmaker has never stopped making the popular X-shaped glass, the brand seems to have decided it was time to just cut to the chase and name it after the movie that made it famous. She realised both in Italy and abroad private flats and buildings for public use as well as museum installations; her trademark is the great attention devoted to the study of the functionality of space and the psychological relationships between man and the environment. Due to popular demand, the complete “Cibi” collection of drinkware has been rebranded under Blade Runner Glass, and is identified by its unique, robust shape. I had contact with Dennis and Denis almost every day, discussing my proposals for furniture and objects.

I love the memory orb not only as a design object but also conceptually as an artefact that makes us consider what it means to be human and because of the questions it throws up around the connection between memory and identity.But while the movie’s flying cars and futuristic set design may have stolen the show, even its minor props have had an impact. Gassner created what he refers to as a “pattern language” – a core vision which informed the production design, the sets and the choice of many of the objects and artefacts throughout the movie. Crafted in Tuscany, the glass is made from hand-blown crystal and features a striking X-shaped design that is meant to convey a feeling of movement while remaining easy to grip, according to the company. Among the flagship products by Arnolfo di Cambio, the Blade Runner Glass , designed by Cini Boeri and has become an icon in the world of design and cinema , stands out.

Roger [Deakins] and I needed to create an uneasy mood, an emotion; orange tones are a metaphor we’ve used before — for fire, heat. When I visited Tokyo for the first time at the invitation of the British Embassy 14 years ago, high-up on my to-do list was a visit to Akihabara or “electric city” as it is known. The exact ‘CIBI’ glass tumbler design that Deckard (Harrison Ford) is seen drinking whiskey from from in his LA Apartment in the dystopian SciFi Blade Runner (1982) and also in Blade Runner 2049 in the Wallace building when Deckard is brought in to meet Niander Wallace. Set in 2019, Ridley Scott’s original Blade Runner (1982) isn’t just a well loved sci-fi movie, it’s a cult.Arnolfo di Cambio, the Italian glassmaker behind the famous tumbler, has decided to rebrand it as the Blade Runner Glass, according to HypeBeast. He wanted to create a toxic landscape, a red desert influenced by the Italian classic The Red Desert (1964) and he involved Syd Mead, the genius “visual futurist” of Blade Runner in the design of this scene.

The Cibi range of glassware has proved to be timeless, enduring as a widely-admired classic of modern product design. We find over population and a collapse of the world’s ecosystems, there is no plant life and food is bio-engineered.Born in Milan and graduated from the Polytechnic in 1951, Cini Boeri was immediately noticed by her design teacher Giò Ponti, who encouraged her to paint. Ana Stelline, a kind of virtual 3D artist using the Memory Orb to manipulate holographic stories which are then coded into replicants to make them feel more ‘real’ or human. Unmistakable signs that give life to concentric games of zigzags and stripes in shades of green, blue, gray, orange, fuchsia, red, black and gold that alternate on the various gift products. Scott selected the iconic CIBI glass to feature in the movie having been struck by its striking, futuristic design. Big thanks to all who voted for us to get to the shortlist and for the oh-so-wise judges who decided we should be the winners!
