New York 2016: the shape of this hand-blown lemonade glass by British designer Max Lamb mimics the silhouette of two lemons stacked on top of each other (+ slideshow).
The glass, which he created for online retailer Makers & Brothers, is specifically made for drinking lemonade and citrus-based cocktails, and is described by the brand as "playful and refreshingly odd".

Lamb ? known for his hands-on approach to design ? began his experimentation by cutting, slicing and stacking lemons.
By stacking two lemons on top of each other, he formed a distinctive silhouette that is comfortable to hold.

The preferred form was then translated back into drawings and made into a mould from Irish fruit wood.

The glasses are produced in small batches of 50, and each one is blown and hand-finished by glass blowers in Waterford, Ireland, in keeping with Makers & Brothers' focus on Irish craft.

Each Lemonade Glass takes 10 minutes to make, then a day to cool before it can be cut and polished for use.
The glass launched during this year's NYCxDesign festival at a Makers & Brothers' event, which was themed around a lemonade stand. Lamb also created his own lemon cocktail that was served to visitors in the glasses.
