The weight of time, in the thickness of the base
A cup that holds tranquility

Product Description:
This glass cup is a hand-blown antique glass made in Europe in the early 20th century. It features a solid, heavy base and a cylindrical form that is simple yet impactful. What particularly stands out is the unusually thick, raised base. The subtle shimmer when light passes through it and the tangible feel with every use offer a charm that industrial products can never replicate. When you pour a drink into it, a quiet beauty unfolds, as if time itself has been contained. This item is suitable for both everyday use and display. (R070150)

Special Notes:
Glassware with such an extremely thick base is somewhat rare among antiques. Despite not being slender and tall, the considerable thickness of the base suggests that the design might have been intended to evoke a sense of "weight" and "security" when lifted. When light refracts through the thick base, it creates a fantastical visual effect (prism effect), making it appear incredibly beautiful when illuminated by artificial or natural light. It might have been intended as a decorative glass piece. The thickness of the base can also be a "glass accumulation" used to flatten the bottom during the glassblowing process. It's possible that this type of construction was intentionally adopted in some cases to improve production efficiency.
