Section V:
B. Square Double Old Fashioned Glass
The whisky glass used by Rick Deckard in Blade Runner
Background:
In 2002, a very good friend in Los Angeles was
able to definitively identify the exact glass used by the Blade Runner
production. Subsequently, we located the original manufacturer in Europe in the
hopes that the glass was still being made. Fortunately—although
first introduced in 1972 by a boutique glassmaker based on a design by an
internationally-known designer—the
glass is produced to this day; a testament to its timelessness.

balcony in the film.
Over the years we have established a close
relationship with Arnolfo di Cambio, and are making the same glass chosen
by Ridley Scott and his set dressers—the
Cini Boeri-designed "Cibi" double old-fashion tumbler (Cibi DOF, for short)—available to the general public.
