{"product_id":"german-silver-tumbler","title":"Engraved Tumbler — 4 Inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single glass, four inches tall, chased by hand from the foot to the rim. The pattern is a continuous field of flowers and leaves with no repeat you can easily find — it runs right round the body, and the only plain surfaces on the piece are the ones that need to be plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThree finishes on one object\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLook at it closely and it is doing three different things at once:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe body\u003c\/strong\u003e is chased all over — matt, textured, and the reason the glass catches light from every angle rather than reflecting a window back at you.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe rim\u003c\/strong\u003e carries a narrow reeded band, cut in fine vertical lines. It gives your lip something to meet and your fingers something to grip on a wet glass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe foot\u003c\/strong\u003e is left mirror-bright and flares out under the body. It lifts the glass off the table, so the chased surface never sits in a ring of condensation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe inside is completely plain and polished. Nothing to catch, nothing to clean out of, and no pattern pressing through to the drinking surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e — 4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne glass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a short tumbler, not a long glass — the size you hand someone water, chaas, thandai or a small sherbet in, rather than a full glass of juice. If you want the tall stemmed version, our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/german-silver-goblets-pair\"\u003eEngraved Goblets\u003c\/a\u003e are 9.5 inches and come as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDrinking from it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGerman Silver is non-reactive and food safe, and a metal glass is genuinely pleasant to drink water from — it takes the temperature of what is in it, which is half the appeal.

There is no silver in it — the name describes the colour, not the content.

Warm water, mild soap, soft sponge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDry it immediately, inside and out.\u003c\/strong\u003e Water standing in the bowl is the thing that marks it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo metal polish on the body.\u003c\/strong\u003e The cutting is fine and shallow; polish flattens it. The foot can be brought back with a cloth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt will darken over a few months, first inside the chasing — which is what makes the flowers read.
