Quick answer
Choose Glass 3 for smaller, measured servings like espresso or juice, and Glass 4 for larger drinks like water or cocktails. The real difference is height and volume.
Size and volume differences
Aarke Glass 3 stands 9.3 cm tall with a diameter of 6.9 cm and holds 290 ml. Glass 4 is taller and holds more, but exact dimensions depend on the specific model version. The key trade-off is counter space versus drink capacity.
If you often serve small portions or want a compact glass that fits neatly in a cupboard, Glass 3 is the practical choice. For larger daily drinks, Glass 4 gives you room without needing a refill.
Material and build quality
Both glasses are made from high quality crystal glass, giving them a clear, refined look that matches Aarke's design aesthetic. The crystal material feels substantial in hand but is more delicate than standard soda-lime glass.
If you prioritize durability over elegance, consider that crystal glass can chip more easily. For everyday use, handle with care and hand wash when possible.
