Reality TV has always been known for producing breakout stars from relative obscurity, but for more than 30 years, from the early days of “The Real World” to the modern day “Vanderpump Rules,” Was there ever a popular wine glass in between? ?Of course, if you've ever watched any of his six seasons of Love Is Blind, you'll know that this is no ordinary reality show. So it may come as no surprise that this breakout star is quite unexpected.
In the Netflix show, or “The Experiment” as it likes to be called, a group of singles date each other through soundproof pods before getting caught up in a whirlwind. There you can talk without seeing the other person's appearance. A courtship that was supposed to end in marriage. And while all this is going on, they are regularly seen brandishing drinks in some strangely attractive golden metal wine glasses. Season 6 of Love is Blind will premiere on Valentine's Day 2024, with the final episode set to air on March 8th, and fans will be able to win their very own gold wine glass. I was looking everywhere I could. In fact, Google searches for the iconic glasses have increased by more than 4,000% in the last week.
In fact, Netflix is selling its own version of the glasses in its store, but it has a black “Love Is Blind” print on it. If you want a cleaner gold look, you're not alone. General Google searches for matte gold wine glasses have increased by 70% in the past few days. And there are plenty of knockoffs online, with some cheaper versions on Amazon and QVC, fancier options at Cambridge Home, and even a stemless variety of gold wine glasses at Wayfair. With a show this popular, there's no need for options.

“Love is Blind'' gold metallic wine glass is stylish and functional
The opaque gold wine glass was a big hit with Love is Blind fans, but many wondered why the sparkling cup became such an important part of the show, and Google for this particular question answered: Searches increased by 500% in previous weeks. Executive producer and creator Chris Coren told TODAY that it was initially partly just a personal preference, but the glasses' continued appearance throughout the show reflects the structure of the story. he added. He said, “I like the fact that it's very authentic and follows their journey in a really true way, but in a very light way that expresses this kind of connective tissue. It's fun. ”.
Not only do we love the look of the glasses, which clearly resonates with many viewers, but there's also a little photography trick. Opaque glasses make it impossible to see the amount of liquid in the container. This means it's easier to stitch scenes together and edit the show, even if the cast is downing drinks or pouring other drinks into glasses between shots. These gold wine glasses may be associated with “Love Is Blind,” but they're also a super fun way to mix and match your party or your own evening glasses. After all, the main reason wine is served in glasses is because it's cheap and non-reactive, but so is stainless steel. So who says you have to follow bland traditions?
