THE CHAMPAGNE GLASS EFFECT :

THE CHAMPAGNE GLASS DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH.

What Works

This graphic works as well as it does in part because it evokes the too-delicate feel of a champagne glass in hand. All that wealth resting on so little. The shape does what a data table alone cannot – it subtly suggests that the wealthy are resting on the poor and that the balance is quite precarious.
