The one I was interested in has the zipper and I found it. The paint is made from a product that has been known to cause birth defects...I changed my mind.

why doesn't the wine drop out of the bubble, the liquid should find a common level...

The product to make the "paint" in the glass is actually Fluohydric acid. But it is volatile, once used it does not remain in the glass. IF there was HF left in the glass the least of your worries would be birth defects...

The level should find the same level IF the preassure is the same in both ends. One is open (preassure = 1 atm), the other is closed (preassure = 0 atm) so the weight of the air is what keeps the wine inside actually.

it is bc there is nowhere for air to go into the bubble therefore it creates a vacuum and whenever the glass tilts to drinks it lets a little out at a time... pretty ingenious unless you really are drinking wine out of it... then it becomes one of "those" nights lol

the frozen shot glasses don't work unless you either do the shot instantly (which doesn't allow it to get cold), or keep your booze in the freezer as well. overall, it's a stupid idea.

frozen shot glasses look cool but in reality you can do one shot with it as it melts intstantly in your hands and the shot isn't really cold :(
