Alpinte Matterhorn Half Pinte

Alpinte Matterhorn Half-Pint – the Matterhorn in a beer glass

The Alpinte Matterhorn Half-Pint combines a handcrafted drinking glass with a striking three-dimensional depiction of what is arguably Switzerland’s most famous mountain. The Matterhorn, with its unmistakable silhouette, rises from the base of the glass. The relief is particularly striking when the glass is filled with beer, water, soft drinks or other beverages. Colour, light and the liquid make the mountain appear different every time, turning the glass into a real eye-catcher on the table.

The Hörnli Hut: a clever detail

On the back of the glass there is a discreet measurement mark at 3.260 dl. This figure is no coincidence: it refers to the Hörnlihütte at 3,260 metres above sea level, the well-known starting point for the classic ascent of the Matterhorn. This small detail combines the function of a drinking glass with the history and topography of the mountain, lending the Half-Pint particular character.

A versatile glass with a 3.3 dl capacity

With a capacity of 3.3 dl, the Half-Pint offers a practical size for beer, water, lemonade and numerous other drinks. The glass is 12.5 cm high and has a diameter of 7.5 cm. It is made from high-quality borosilicate glass, which is characterised by high transparency and good resistance to mechanical stress and temperature fluctuations.

A handcrafted tribute to the Swiss Alps

The Matterhorn Half-Pint is made entirely by hand. As a result, each glass is a unique piece, and slight variations may be part of its artisanal character. The glass is ideal for personal use, as a souvenir of Zermatt or as an original gift for mountain enthusiasts and lovers of Switzerland. The Matterhorn design on the base of the glass is particularly striking when the glass contains a cold beer.
