Are these a find? IOW Kyoto Goblets
jakgene:
Bought these recently as I recognised the label as the same as a perfume bottle I have, but didn't know what pattern they were.
With the aid of Mark Hill's great book I think I have identified them as Kyoto Goblets, one each of Cherry and Pine colours. Can anyone confirm if that is correct? The book also says they are not found often, and I have searched the internet and not found a photo of them anywhere, nor any past or present listings on Ebay. So are they really rare? How careful do I need to be when sipping my Bailey's from one? ;D
a very pleased JAK
glassobsessed:
Yes Kyoto Pine and Kyoto Cherry, the range was made for six years so not as rare as some. Glasses do tend to be much harder to find than other items in the ranges, as to how rare I don't know. You could ask Ron Wheeler at Artius Glass.
In my opinion they are far too small for Baileys, surely a half pint mug is required? :D

jakgene:
Thanks for the suggestion John - I have just sent an email to Ron Wheeler. Will see what he says.
As for the Baileys - I only like to drink out of quality glass - but like to keep the bottle handy for refills! !
chopin-liszt:
Definitely Kyoto, one pine, one cherry. Not a shadow of a doubt.
(I suppose if it's Biley's you're drinking, you do need something of class to offset it..... >:D )
