Luminarc Tempered Mahak Cup 28cl, Set of 6

Our review

This is a six-piece set of Luminarc tempered glass cups, each holding 28cl. That capacity sits in a useful middle ground: big enough for a generous cup of tea, coffee or juice, small enough to feel comfortable in the hand and to store without eating up much shelf space. Tempered glass is the key detail here, since it is made to handle the knocks and temperature shifts that ordinary glassware often does not survive, which makes this set a sensible pick for a busy family kitchen, an office pantry or a small café where cups get washed and reused constantly. Before buying, think about how you actually drink. If you mostly serve espresso or strong coffee in small doses, 28cl may feel large; if you serve tea, milk or cold drinks, it is about right. Also consider whether you want a matching set for guests or just a few everyday cups, since six covers both. Compare it with plain non-tempered glass sets, which cost less but chip more easily, and with thicker stoneware mugs, which hold heat longer but are heavier and can break if dropped. Check the listed capacity and piece count carefully, as Luminarc makes similar cups in other sizes. Available on Sokonia.
