Limited Edition Milk Glasses

Enzo Mari

In 1996, renowned Italian designer Enzo Mari created a limited-edition series of milk glasses for the German glassmaker Ritzenhoff. Produced in a run of 10,000 pieces, and printed with minimalist motif that reflect Mari’s playful yet critical approach to design. Known for his resistance to decorative excess, Mari used the humble milk glass as a canvas to explore themes of ritual, function, and everyday beauty - turning a simple object into a design statement. Crafted from high-quality glass and screenprinted in vivid detail, the glasses were part of Ritzenhoff’s celebrated “Art on Glass” project, which invited leading designers to reinterpret classic drinkware.
