Let’s Drink to That
Bob Weinberg asked “just curious if you David Chadwick-Brown if he ever tried to drink out of these goblets?
David responded:
In response to Bob Weinberg’s question, my drinking from the pictured goblets is as frequent as said use of my amethyst #3168, though by that page in Gardner, he had changed the page-heading to “Goblets and Other Stemware.” Guess we’ll have to assume the two goblets would be called “other stemware.”

Bob Weinberg’s further comment is:
I use my Carder designed clear martini glasses and beer glasses every day (well almost)!

John Clayton observes about the top picture:
FYI: the shape pictured is now the “lipped” preferred for California Pinot Noir!

Finally, Mark Chamovitz joins the conversation by saying and picturing:
My recent Summertime purchase are by far my favorite goblet(s). Steuben blanks engraved by Max Erlacher. In my opinion, they are all outstanding. It’s hard to choose just one.
