Embassy glassware

Corin Mellor / David Mellor

From £9.85

When David Mellor was commissioned by the government in 1963 to design a collection of modern tableware for the British embassies around the world little did he know his 'Embassy' collection would become such a design classic. Nearly half a century later, his son Corin Mellor has designed a range of glassware to sit alongside the recently reissued original 'Embassy' collection. The hand blown glasses share the elegance and refinery of their 'Embassy' siblings and we're thrilled to see the reintroduction of the champagne saucer – the traditional vessel for drinking champagne in Britain since 1663.
