What was the coupe glass modeled after?

1 Answer
What was the coupe glass modeled after?
The coupe glass was shaped to be a smaller glass for drinking sparkling wine, modeled on the larger goblets for cider and ale. Although there are legends about it being modeled after the curvaceous shape of a woman's breast, these are largely apocryphal. More recent designs like Restaurant 34 in London collaborating with Kate Moss for a coupe based on her breast in 2014 have perpetuated this myth. Find a wide variety of coupe glasses on 1stDibs.
