Each goblet stands 5 ¼" tall, the lip is 3" across, the foot is approx. 2 ½" wide. Holds 150 ml of liquid comfortably. Elegant summery design of crushed salad-green glass baked onto the clear glass surface and accented by thin horizontal stripes in between is one of the signature designs produced by the Red Giant Glass Factory.

In excellent, as-new, condition. Occasional minute traces of wear can be found at strong magnification but none of them are visible to the naked eye.

The Red Giant Glass Factory has a long illustrious history going back to 1764 when Aleksey Bakhmetev, a retired military officer, acquired a permit from Empress Catherine II to open a crystal factory in his estate in the Penza province. During the Soviet era, the factory manufactured mostly military equipment (optics for rockets, tanks and submarines) but, like most such facilities, had "civilian" lines of products, such as these goblets, for example.

The factory stopped its production in 2008 and was sold, piece by piece. However, one of the workshops was bought out by a Moscow entrepreneur who organized production of high-quality crystalware in the traditional classic design.
