The ARNO GLASS cup and saucer is one of those pieces that sits somewhere between daily tableware and design object. It carries a strong mid-century design lineage, but still feels current in the way it is used and displayed.

ARNO GLASS describes the collection as a revival of an iconic 1963 design by Joe Colombo, inspired by the Arno River in Florence. The brand’s approach was not just to reproduce the original, but to reinterpret it for contemporary use, with a focus on stackability, durability, and ease of use in everyday life.

That balance is what makes this set special. The silhouette feels sculptural and distinctly Italian modernist, while the cup and saucer format remains practical and comfortable for daily coffee service. It works equally well as a design-forward espresso/coffee cup at home, in a studio setting, or on a café table where presentation matters.

ARNO GLASS also emphasizes craftsmanship in production. According to the brand, each piece is handcrafted by artisans with decades of experience, using a process that includes high-temperature kilns and hand-finishing steps, which means slight variations can occur from piece to piece. Those small differences are part of the character, not a flaw.

The cup and saucer is available in multiple colours, with the ARNO GLASS shop listing variants including beige, blue, mint, pink frosted, pink, smoke, amber, and green. The collection page also shows these cup and saucer versions at the same listed price point.

Joe Colombo himself is widely recognized as a major Italian designer of the 1960s, known for functional, forward-looking industrial design, which makes this piece feel historically grounded as well as visually relevant today.

Amsterdam Coffee Festival, done.

Three full days on the bar, a lot of coffees brewed and a steady flow of people stopping by.

Thanks to the team for putting in the hours, and to everyone who came by for a coffee, a quick chat, or just to see what we were doing.

And to everyone we worked with on the booth, good to build this together.

AMSTERDAM COFFEE FESTIVAL DAY 2/3
Two full days behind us. Good conversations, a lot of coffees tasted, and a steady flow at the booth from open to close. Always good to see both familiar faces and people discovering A.M.O.C. for the first time.

We’ve been on bar all day with Weber Workshops, Sibarist, Acaia, APAX Lab and OREA, pouring the new /055 and the Java release alongside the rest of the lineup.

You may have seen that we’ve ALSO got the Fellow Series 1 espressomachine (the only one here!) on our booth. Want to see it in the works? Booth N7D.

See you tomorrow.
