Made by COVO

Designed by Vico Magistretti

Vico Magistretti, one of the defining voices of twentieth-century Italian design, approached even the most utilitarian objects with the same rigor he brought to furniture and architecture. The Grip collection for COVO is a quiet expression of that philosophy.

The glass walls are drawn almost to the point of disappearance, a deliberate reduction that shifts attention away from the vessel and onto what it holds. At the rim, a gentle outward opening introduces a sense of primordial gesture, grounding each piece in something older than style. The tapered silhouette is easy to hold and allows formats to stack cleanly.

  • Available in formats for water, whiskey, wine, and champagne
  • Stackable construction across the collection
  • Designed by Vico Magistretti for COVO
  • Minimal form with considered proportions

Grip asks very little of the room and very little of the drinker. That restraint is exactly the point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Grip Glassware collection?

Grip was designed by Vico Magistretti, one of the most influential figures in Italian design history. Known for furniture and lighting as much as objects, Magistretti brought the same formal discipline to this glassware that defined his broader body of work.

What makes the Grip glasses different from standard barware?

The defining characteristic is the extreme thinness of the glass walls, which reduces the visual presence of the vessel so the focus falls on the drink itself. The outward flare at the rim and the stackable taper are functional refinements, not decorative choices.

Are the Grip glasses suitable for everyday use or only for entertaining?

The collection is designed for daily use. The stackable format, considered proportions, and range of drink-specific formats make it practical as a permanent part of a well-set table rather than reserved for special occasions.

What drink formats are available in the Grip collection?

The collection includes formats for water, whiskey, wine, and champagne, each adapted to the proportional needs of the drink while maintaining a consistent formal language across the set.

What is COVO's design approach as a brand?

COVO is an Italian brand with a focus on small objects and accessories designed by significant figures from the international design world. The brand treats everyday objects as opportunities for authorship, commissioning work that prioritizes form and material integrity over trend.
