Set of six mid-20th century cognac glasses, made from high-quality clear glass, featuring a classic shape characteristic of the mid-century modern style. Each glass is distinguished by a wide rounded bowl, a short and sturdy stem, and a broad stable base, ensuring comfort in use. The glasses are adorned with wide metallic gold embellishments around the edges, whose brilliance contrasts with the smooth, transparent glass. The set, originating from Austria in the 1950s and 60s, is in excellent condition, with no chips or scratches. The original manufacturer's labels are visible under the glasses, and the set is offered in its original period box, which shows only slight signs of wear, remaining in good condition. These glasses embody the spirit of an era that loved to celebrate the everyday with a touch of glamour. The gold rings tell the story of a time when luxury was expressed in detail, and toasting with such a glass highlighted the exceptional nature of the moment. The simple and elegant shape evokes the atmosphere of Viennese salons and evenings where the glass reflected the light of lamps and conversations about the future. The set will fit perfectly in a classic dining room or a collector's lounge, where it can be paired with period porcelain or modern minimalist glass — the contrast will highlight the gold edges. It will also be perfect as bar decor in a mid-century interior, accompanied by brass trays, a crystal decanter, or geometric vases in coloured glass. Thanks to its original box, the set can also be displayed open, showcasing the illustration on the lid as a subtle vintage accent. The indicated price is for the set of six glasses with the original box.
