Traditional Portuguese glasses - Atlantis Crystal

Owned by the same parent group as Vista Alegre, Atlantis Crystal is another world-renowned Portuguese brand. Their ranges go from the traditional, based on the finest and most traditional designs Portuguese glassblowers have been making for decades, to modern designs made out of the best and clearest crystal in the town of Alcobaça. These pressed glasses are some of my favourite designs and the decanters are charming. I've got a couple of set of water and wine glasses like this and the jug and decanter are next on my list. The heaviness and solidity of the glasses reminds me of using them when I was little. The bumps on the glass are just as addictive when stroked as bubble-wrap is when popped...!
