Sophie glasses, set of 2, in amber crystal cut to clear. A band of deep diamond cutting runs round the lower bowl, cut through the amber to the colourless layer beneath, on a twisted clear stem. 24% lead crystal, 175 ml. Hand wash only.
Cut-to-clear stemware sits at the top of the decorative glass tradition: the cutting is slow, exacting work, and every facet has to line up with its neighbours around the whole bowl. Amber is the warmest of the classic casing colours and the one that reads best under candlelight. Made by Luxsor.
