Even the lid is glass
Experience beverages through glass, not plastic or metal. VITRI all-glass tumblers are crafted from borosilicate glass and designed for pure taste.
What is an
all-glass tumbler?
Most tumblers aren't fully glass. The cup usually is, but the lid is typically plastic, or if it is glass, it still relies on a rubber or silicone gasket to seal it.
An all-glass tumbler means exactly what it sounds like: cup and lid, both glass, with nothing else in between.
Why glass?
Glass is non-porous and taste-neutral, so it never carries flavor from one drink into the next, and it won't leach anything into what you're drinking the way plastic can.
The all-glass lid
This is where most "all-glass" tumblers quietly cut a corner. While most lids aren't glass, the ones that are seal to the cup with a rubber gasket or O-ring tucked into a groove that's difficult to clean, and that hard-to-reach seam is where odor and flavor build up over time.
VITRI's lid is different. It's ground glass sealing directly against ground glass, a patented sip-through design with no gasket anywhere in the seal. The cup's rim and the lid's edge are precision-ground to meet each other so closely that the glass itself creates the seal, no rubber compressing to fill a gap, no separate part doing that job. An engineered opening lets you sip through the lid while it's on, and there's no hidden gasket collecting residue between uses.
It's a harder problem to engineer and manufacture than adding a rubber ring, which is why VITRI's glass-to-glass seal is patented, the first design of its kind.

Frequently Asked Questions
Collapsible content
What is an all-glass tumbler?
A tumbler where every surface the drink or your mouth touches, cup and lid alike, is glass, with no plastic or rubber gasket doing the sealing. VITRI's version uses a patented glass-to-glass seal instead, precision-ground so the lid meets the cup without any separate sealing part.
Can glass tumblers be used for hot coffee?
Yes. Borosilicate glass is specifically formulated to resist thermal shock, the cracking that happens when glass is exposed to a sudden temperature change. That's what makes it suited to fresh-brewed coffee straight off the machine, or ice added directly to a drink that was just hot, situations that would stress standard soda-lime glass.
What is the difference between a tumbler and a travel mug?
A travel mug is usually built for portability and heat retention first, often a double-wall steel or plastic body with a screw-on or press-fit lid designed to prevent spills in a bag or cup holder. VITRI's all-glass tumbler is built for everyday use at home or on the go, with glass surfaces throughout, including double-wall insulation, without trading taste for spill-proofing.
How does the glass-to-glass lid seal without a gasket?
The lid and cup are precision-ground so glass seals directly against glass, a patented design with no rubber or silicone anywhere in the seal. That also means there's no hidden seam for odor or flavor to build up in over time, the way there is with a gasket.
