double champagne glass 'Brigitte' by Borek Sipek

Canon EOS 6D - f/11 - 1/160sec - 100 mm - ISO 200

 

- This is a 'double' wine/champagne glass, called 'Brigitte', designed by the famous Czech architect and designer Borek Sipek.

As with more of his art glass, it is very unpractical and too delicate to use it and more a piece of art for the showcase. The height of this double glass is 31cm.
