A set of four 11 ounce double old fashioned glasses in Marquis by Waterford's Markham cut. Double old fashioned is the correct glass for whiskey neat, an old fashioned, a negroni, or anything served over a large cube, and 11 ounces gives room for that cube without crowding. What separates crystal from pressed glass here is weight and how the cut catches light: a heavy base sits solidly on a bar and does not feel like a rental. Marquis is Waterford's more accessible line, so you get the cut and the heft at a price where breaking one is not a crisis. Best fit: a home bar, a wedding or housewarming gift, and anyone whose whiskey is currently served in a water glass. Hand wash to protect the cut and clarity over time.
Pros
- Real crystal weight, which is most of what makes a rocks glass feel good to hold
- 11 ounces fits a large clear ice cube without crowding the pour
- Marquis line gets you the Waterford cut at a price where a broken glass is not a crisis
- Set of four covers a small gathering rather than just a pair
Cons
- Hand wash only if you want the cut to stay bright, since dishwasher cycles dull crystal over time
Frequently asked questions
Are these dishwasher safe?
They can survive a dishwasher but repeated cycles dull the cut and can cloud the crystal. Hand washing is what keeps them looking like they did in the box.
Will a large ice cube fit?
Yes, 11 ounces is sized for a 2 inch cube or sphere with room for a proper pour on top. That is the main reason to choose a double old fashioned over a standard rocks glass.
Is Marquis the same as Waterford?
Marquis is Waterford's more accessible line. You get the recognizable cut and crystal weight at a lower price point than the flagship collections.
What drinks are these actually for?
Whiskey neat or on the rocks, old fashioneds, negronis, sazeracs, and anything else built over ice in a short glass. They also work fine as heavy water glasses.
