Yolmina Glass Gold Coasters Set of 4

Yes — this is one of the biggest advantages reviewers mention. Glass doesn't stain or absorb odors the way stone, cork, or fabric coasters can. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is all you need. No special care or maintenance required, which makes them especially appealing if you've ever dealt with coasters that get discolored from tea or coffee stains over time.

Be honest with yourself about how you'll use them. If you mainly drink iced coffee, cold beer, or anything that sweats heavily, these aren't the best choice — the glass doesn't absorb condensation and moisture can seep under the brass edge. If you need maximum surface protection from wet glasses, go with absorbent stone or ceramic coasters instead. These are designed for people who value style and use them primarily with hot drinks or room-temperature beverages.

Yes, the set includes a holder that keeps all four coasters organized when they're not in use. Reviewers appreciate this — it helps with drink placement and keeps your table tidy. The holder also adds to the overall decorative look of the set.

Yes, and this is a surprisingly practical benefit that one reviewer specifically called out. The carved glass pattern actually conceals water spots and marks rather than showing them, which means the coasters look clean and presentable even between cleanings. It's a nice bonus — you get the aesthetic appeal of the pattern plus the functional benefit of not seeing every drop of water.

Not entirely. While the brass edge gives the coasters a polished, finished look, one reviewer notes that it's not watertight — moisture from condensation can seep underneath. This isn't a problem with hot drinks like tea or coffee, but it's worth knowing if you plan to use them with cold, sweating beverages. For most hot-drink use, the edge does a fine job of keeping things tidy.

They make a strong gift for anyone who appreciates home decor or entertaining. The elegant design with brass accents gives them a more premium, thoughtful feel than typical coasters. They're especially good for people who love hosting — the set looks impressive on a bar cart or coffee table. Just keep in mind they're better suited for someone who prioritizes aesthetics; if your recipient mainly drinks iced beverages, absorbent coasters might be more practical.

Reviewers describe the glass construction as sturdy, durable, and well-made — five buyers specifically mention the solid build quality. Of course, they're still glass, so they can break if dropped on a hard floor. But for normal everyday use on a table, they hold up well and don't show wear the way cork or fabric coasters do over time.

Just place the coaster on your table and set your drink on top — nothing complicated. The carved glass pattern faces up, and the brass edge gives it a finished look. Reviewers mention they're great for wine glasses, coffee mugs, and tea cups. One nice bonus: the carved pattern actually helps conceal water marks rather than showing them, so they stay looking clean between wipes.

A high-quality coaster should protect your surfaces, look good, and last. The Yolmina coasters check most of those boxes — reviewers describe the glass construction as sturdy, durable, and well-made, with gold and brass accents that feel tasteful rather than cheap. The carved glass design adds visual interest while also hiding water marks. One thing to note: a couple of reviewers mention minor flaws visible on very close inspection, so the quality control isn't perfect, but the overall impression from most buyers is positive.

Not according to reviewers. Three buyers specifically describe the gold and brass accents as 'subtle and tasteful' rather than over-the-top. The overall design strikes a balance between vintage elegance and modern simplicity, so the gold adds warmth without making the coasters look gaudy. They blend well with a variety of decor styles — from traditional to contemporary.

It depends on your priorities. If you want maximum absorbency for iced drinks that sweat a lot, stone or ceramic coasters are better. But if you want something elegant that doubles as home decor, glass coasters like the Yolmina set are a great choice — especially for hot tea and coffee, which produce minimal condensation. Reviewers specifically praise how easy these are to clean compared to absorbent materials that can stain over time.

Glass coasters like the Yolmina set are not absorbent at all — that's actually the main trade-off with this style. If absorbency is your top priority, you'd want sandstone, ceramic, or diatomaceous earth coasters instead. However, several reviewers point out that the Yolmina's carved glass pattern does a surprisingly good job of hiding water marks, and the glass surface wipes clean in seconds. For hot drinks like tea and coffee, absorbency is less of an issue since there's little condensation.

The Yolmina glass coasters come in a set of 4, which is one of the more common configurations. A set of 4 works well for most coffee tables and small gatherings. If you need more, you'd have to purchase multiple sets.

Most coasters fall in the 3.5 to 4.5 inch range, which accommodates standard mugs and glasses. Reviewers mention that the Yolmina coasters are a 'good size' — large enough to comfortably fit wine glasses and coffee mugs without being so big they dominate your table space.

These Yolmina coasters are made of glass with brass edges, so you'd want to check what's on the bottom before placing them on a delicate glass table. Many reviewers use them on wooden coffee tables and bar surfaces without issue. If you're worried about scratching, look for whether the bottom has any felt or rubber padding — that's a common feature to watch for with glass-on-glass contact.

The best coaster depends on what matters most to you. For pure function and absorbency, go with stone or cork. For aesthetics and easy cleaning, glass coasters like the Yolmina set are hard to beat — reviewers consistently call them 'elegant' and 'beautiful,' with a vintage-modern design that works with various decor styles. The brass accents are described as subtle and tasteful rather than flashy. If you primarily drink hot beverages and want something that looks great on your coffee table, these are a strong pick.

Both shapes are popular, but round coasters like the Yolmina set tend to be the more classic, versatile choice. Round coasters mirror the shape of most cups and glasses, which gives them a natural, balanced look. Reviewers mention that these round glass coasters pair well with wine glasses, mugs, and tea cups alike. Square coasters can look more modern or geometric, but round is generally the safer bet for matching any table setting.

Many coasters come with felt pads, rubber feet, or cork backing on the bottom to prevent scratching. If your coasters don't have built-in protection, you can add adhesive felt pads from any hardware store. With the Yolmina set, it's worth checking the bottom surface before placing them on delicate furniture, especially since the brass edge could potentially mark soft surfaces.

Coasters protect your furniture from water rings, heat marks, and condensation damage. The Yolmina glass coasters serve that protective function while also adding a decorative element to your space — reviewers consistently highlight that these work as both functional coasters and standalone home decor pieces. The vintage-modern carved glass design with brass edges looks elegant even when you're not using them for drinks.
