Good glasses for small drinks
This is a nicely made 6 oz glass for serving smaller cocktails. It would also work well for desert wines. I confirmed that the glass holds 6 oz of liquid to the very rim. The picture is a cocktail with 4 oz of liquid goodness shaken with ice and then shaken without ice (dry shaken) to create a nice foam head. It is a perfect size. I left it ungarnished for the pictures.I am particular about glassware and I believe that this is a good glass for the price. This glass is light and delicate feeling, but could be washed in the dishwasher if loaded carefully so it does not bounce around. The rim is rounded, but without a lip or noticeable seam. What I mean is that there is no bulge out at the rim, it is the same thickness as the glass, just rounded on the top. While a sheer rim may be preferred, this is a nice rim for the price of the glass and is pleasant to drink from.There are no seams on the glass where the bowl and stem meet or where the stem and foot meet. All four of my glasses look similar (no noticeable glass to glass variation). They are well packaged in foam.This is a small glass and it feels small in your hand, especially if you have larger hands. But the stem is a nice thickness and if you hold the stem when you drink (I am not telling you you have to, but ...) it would feel like a small white wine glass.If you are looking for a house glass that you can serve smaller volume cocktails in then this is a winner!

Elegant and very well engineered BUY!
Add an elegant flair to your hand crafted cocktails with these Chouggo Nick & Nora glasses.Beautifully made and well designed. Perfect size for the typical 4-5 oz cocktail (six ounces right to the brim)The turned in at the top (tulip?) shape is a super bonus, as it resists spills as a V shaped glass would.

Perfect glasses for strong cocktails
These glasses are beautiful and surprisingly durable - during our party they tipped over on the table a couple of times and didn’t chip or break at all.

Darling but small base
These were a bit smaller than anticipated - but they do measure 6oz to the very brim. Darling glass, excellent packaging, but the base is very small. I have a cabinet where I hang my stemware, and these have the risk of slipping out so need to return. No other complaints, just something to be aware of if you hang your stemware.

Beautiful glassware - simple and elegant. [UPDATE: One Year Later]
[Update]I stand by everything I wrote originally. Still very pleased with these glasses, and they are much better than alternatives in terms of avoiding spills. I still haven't broken any, but that's probably dumb luck. It's only a matter of time, and I'm ok with that. I really wanted to address comments pertaining to the size/volume of the glasses.A 6oz glass is much smaller than a standard Martini glass, or Coupe. In my opinion, this is very much a 'pro,' not a 'con'.For a drink that you'd serve 'up', like a Martini, or a Manhattan, you're shooting for maybe 3oz of liquor before stirring, depending on taste. With additional ingredients, after stirring you're sitting at 4 - 5oz of liquid.If you pour a 5oz drink into an 11oz Martini glass, it will look ridiculously empty. To fill the glass correctly, you'd need twice as much drink to get to about 10oz of liquid. And that's an absurd amount of alcohol in a single drink - it's actually 4 "standard drinks", using the 1.5oz of 80 Proof alcohol guideline. A 200lb man, having drank that single martini an hour ago, cannot legally drive with a BAC around .09%.If you pour that original 5oz drink into a 6oz glass, it will fill it to within a half inch of the top. It's a far more reasonable quantity of liquor, and anyone doing "drink math" will have a far easier time keeping track.Now if you're sitting around the house, by all means, have at it - but if you're serving friends, and they're driving home later, this really is something you should be cognizant of. If nothing else, you certainly want them to be safe - and worst case, you might actually be liable if something bad happens.[Original Review]I just received these yesterday, so take the sturdiness rating with a grain of salt... These glasses, by their nature, are slim stemmed and delicate. I'm sure they could be broken quite easily - but if you're in the market for Nick and Nora glassware, you probably already expect that.These arrived in perfect condition, exceptionally packaged in a box with custom cut foam, completely enveloping each glass. After washing them by hand, they were impressive - no material or manufacturing defects that I could find.I can't wait to use them - the profile of standard Nick and Noras, and Martini style glasses, are so easy to spill. The lip profile on these should keep the liquid in the glass where it belongs!I will be purchasing more of them for use, and probably a backup box for when the inevitable happens. Stemware that gets used eventually gets broken. At least with these, the price of replacement is quite manageable compared to many alternatives. If you're not prepared for that, buy plastic.

Size Matters
So you're looking for a smaller cocktail glass for Martinis, Manhattans, Black Manhattans, etc. This is a good choice. Not super delicate, but also not chunky. Attached photo shows the Reidel Nick & Nora (4.5 oz), the Amehla Nick and Nora (5 oz and the only one in true classic N&N shape), this product the Chuoggo Nick and Nora (6 oz), and the Reidel Martini (+ 8 oz). This size works best for me, don't have to fill it up, but room for a garnish. The Reidel N&N is a little too small. The Reidel Martini, well, its a boat - 6 oz of gin or vodka to make it look full. Maybe some people can drink two, but no one's drinking 3! Sophisticated shape for a sophisticated cocktail - and people can have three drinks without passing out.
