A joyful set of six vintage French dessert cups, made in clear pressed glass with vivid orange bases that catch the light like drops of marmalade. Each cup has a gently fluted bowl and softly undulating rim, giving the substantial glass an unexpectedly delicate quality.
Made in France during the latter half of the 20th century, these are wonderfully suited to ice cream, sorbet, berries, or a perfectly extravagant coupe of whipped cream and cherries. Their sunny color and sculptural form bring a playful note to the table while remaining distinctly French.
Each cup is impressed “FRANCE” beneath the base.
