In a Turkish household, you never serve coffee to one or two people alone; you wait until there is a full table, and then you serve everyone together. The six-cup set is not a quantity choice but a cultural one: it is the right number for the ritual. These handmade cups carry that tradition in their form — each one made individually, with the slight variations in decoration and finish that come with handcraft rather than machine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 2.36 oz, the size sits between the traditional 1.69 oz and the more generous 2.5-3 oz formats.

Tea served in the wrong glass changes how it is experienced — the narrow-waist tulip glass that concentrates the aroma, the small coffee cup that keeps the concentrate from cooling, the metal saucer that carries heat properly. We selected these because they are the objects that have been on Turkish and Middle Eastern tea tables for generations — not because they are trendy, but because they work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Cleaning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-wash with warm water and mild soap.

The narrow waist is not decorative — it keeps your fingers away from the hot liquid while holding the rim. Turkish tea is never poured to the brim; leave space at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between a Turkish coffee cup and an espresso cup?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTurkish coffee cups (2–3 oz \/ 60–90 ml) are similar in size to espresso cups but are typically rounder and shorter. The small size is intentional — Turkish coffee is concentrated and served in small amounts, with the grounds settling at the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use these glasses in the microwave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. Glass tea glasses with metal rims or holders should not go in the microwave. Plain glass without metal accents can be microwaved briefly, but these sets are designed for stovetop-brewed tea, not reheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many glasses do I need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTurkish hospitality means serving all guests simultaneously — a set of 6 is the traditional hosting size. Sets of 2 are for personal use. If you regularly host, a 6-piece set is the right starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the traditional way to serve Turkish tea?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn a tray, with a sugar bowl alongside (sugar is never stirred in — it is held between the teeth or placed on the saucer). The glass is filled two-thirds with concentrate, one-third with hot water from the kettle. Guests adjust to their own preference.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rootsware","offers":[{"title":"Gold","offer_id":51916657885482,"sku":"337-K-Y-18","price":59.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":51916657918250,"sku":"337-K-Y-11","price":59.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/6360\/1194\/files\/gold123.jpg?v=1782267440","url":"https:\/\/rootsware.com\/products\/handmade-turkish-coffee-cup-set-gold-silver","provider":"Rootsware","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
