A forma multifacetada é fácil de segurar e de servir. São oferecidas três versões: um vidro ciano liso, um acabamento prateado com 70 por cento de opacidade e um vidro preto com 85 por cento de opacidade que ainda deixa ver a vodca em seu interior. Uma embalagem-presente em metal leve abre-se girando sua parte superior, que permanece fechada durante o transporte. A forma foi concebida para parecer simples e evocativa.
