I had one of those, a present from MrsP. Didn't it come with a pair of socks?
Unfortunately a spice jar fell out of the cupboard onto it .that was its end.
The Bee glass was a giftee from my wife.
This is a La Rochere tea cup made by the oldest glass factory in France. Each are fired at a very high temperatures producing an exceptional quality glass that is crystal clear and durable. A pressure seam is sometimes visible, which is the mark left by the mould in which the glass is pressed. It is the characteristic of pressed machine glass, symbolizing its French heritage.
Many a cuppa go through this glass every day! (After my one cup of decaf coffee [in my cat coffee mug] each morning.)
- Made in the oldest glass factory in France (founded in 1475)
- Made using the traditional French method of pressing molted glass in a mould which causes the iconic seam
- Molten glass is poured into a metal mold and pressure is applied creating the iconic seam.
- Special shine obtained by fire polishing.
- 4.5"H x 3.5"W
