Pair of Metropolis DOF, Czechias

Two clear tumblers ringed with stacked grooves, looking prim and a little mechanical.

This pair of double old fashioned glasses in lead crystal is by Ralph Lauren, from Czech Republic, Czechia. The Czech lands, historically known as Bohemia, have a long tradition of glassmaking and glass cutting, and lead crystal is valued for its weight and brilliance. A matched pair of short, straight-sided drinking vessels, their bodies cut with evenly spaced horizontal bands. The surfaces are bright and colorless, with a heavy plain base and a smooth, thin rim. It is 4 inches high and 3.5 in diameter.

Plain-spoken enough to hold anything, stripes included.
