Set of 6 vintage Jena Glass tea cups with matching saucers, produced in Germany and made from high-quality heat-resistant borosilicate glass. Designed for everyday functionality and timeless aesthetics, these cups perfectly reflect the minimalist philosophy typical of East German (GDR) design and the renowned production standards of Schott & Gen Mainz. Lightweight yet extremely durable, borosilicate glass was developed for laboratory use and later became iconic in German modern tableware thanks to its resistance to thermal shock. Ideal for tea, herbal infusions, coffee, or hot beverages, allowing the color of the drink to remain beautifully visible. Original vintage set — no longer in production. CONDITION Very good. Used in unrestored vintage condition. MEASUREMENTS Height: 7 cm. Dia: 8.5 cm.
