It features a slightly heavy, thick base and a plump form, making it a simple yet handcrafted piece. The glass surface shows subtle scuffs, air bubbles, and distortions, but these are marks of its age and create a charm not found in mass-produced items. The finish of the base and the rounded rim also reveal the handiwork of a glass workshop from that era. It can be used for drinks, as a vase, a display item, or a small container.

Therefore, features such as trapped air bubbles, slight undulations on the surface, uneven thickness of the base, distorted rims, and variations in size due to hand-finishing were often treated as \"individuality\" or \"acceptable manufacturing variations\" rather than \"defects.\" In other words, the industrial standards for \"defective products\" that we have today did not exist then. Broken items or those with obvious shape mistakes were melted down in the furnace and reused. This was the most common and practical measure to reduce waste. Products that had cosmetic issues but were still functional were sometimes sold as \"bargain items\" in markets and stalls. This was especially common for everyday glass tableware and bottles for the general public. Even if their shape was not perfect, they were often repurposed for daily necessities like water pitchers or ink bottles, or even agricultural tools. This was another form of the recycling spirit. Unlike modern standards where \"perfect finish = good quality,\" people in the past strongly valued \"finding worth in the texture created by materials and the craftsman's hands.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Based on research by AI.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"イエローガレージ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42777161400404,"sku":"R070161","price":10000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/3856\/4948\/files\/0_4201bbda-c2dd-46fc-8de3-b2e48be276e5.jpg?v=1766237216","url":"https:\/\/adhocstore.com\/en\/products\/european-antique-thick-base-vintage-glass-cup-70mm","provider":"ADHOCストアー","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
