If you’ve scrolled through TikTok lately, you’ve probably seen them: handblown juice glasses adorned with tiny, handpressed glass beads—hearts, shamrocks, bows—lined up on a creator’s kitchen shelves. Anthropologie’s Icon juice glasses have become the must-have glassware, with copycat versions now sold at several retailers like T.J. Maxx and Marshalls. And thanks to limited drops, they’re also the latest collectible obsession.
“The chokehold these glasses have on me,” says one TikTok user, showing off an illusive horseshoe glass, which is now sold out. Another jokes, “I’m not even mad that I spent $100 on glasses I don’t need. They just make me happy.”
That’s the magic of the trend: they’re functional, yes, but they also hit that sweet spot between nostalgia (we could totally see them in our grandma’s kitchen) and Gen Z whimsy (what’s more fanciful than matching your drinkware to your mood?).
The limited-edition nature of the designs—just last month, Anthropologie released eight new motifs—makes them feel all the more special. Beyond their scarcity, the appeal of icon glasses is in their slightly wonky, handblown shape and delicate embellishments, which make them feel like something you’d discover in a vintage shop. That mix of exclusivity and charm has led to viral moments as collectors rush to their nearest store or refresh the website in hopes of snagging a set before they sell out, just like sneakerheads.
As long as Anthropologie keeps rolling out new designs, expect these Tiktok favorites to stick around. One commenter sums it up simply: “The joy I feel picking out my silly little cup everyday is unmatched.”
