The Met Store: Baroque Glasssource
I've made a pledge to be as green as I can manage so I don't own any paper plates etc... and I'm in need of some glasses... and since Tiffany's every day seems a bit extreme to most I'll settle for these beauties priced at just 10 bucks per piece!
"Attributed to the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company between 1820 and 1840, the original “Baroque revival” shell and the repeating palmettes of the tumbler on which the Museum's glass is based, are splendidly contrasted with vertical ribbing reflecting the classical style from the early nineteenth century and signifying a departure from the use of imitation geometric cut patterns. Glass. 8 oz. 3 1/2''H. "
