Platinum rimmed glasses

 

Hello folks!

Hope you guys are having a great midweek.Been awhile since i posted here, and in continuation of the mugs and cups series that contains platinum, i present some latest news from the Platinum world!

This time, a series of Platinum Rimmed Glasses from Christofle! These are wine glasses, and a water glass as well that have their rims dipped in Platinum.

They are available as red wine, white wine, water glasses and champagne flute as well!

While information isn't much regarding it at the present moment, i'll try to get some more as i intend to purchase at least the red wine glass since i'm a red wine lover!

The good thing is that there is a Christofle store here in Tokyo, so i'll see what i can find asap!

In the meantime, some press pictures of this exclusive series, hopefully the Platinum Boy can be found drinking his Amarone from one of these real soon....

 










Cheers and have a Platinum day ahead!

Stephen

The company that makes the titanium frame glasses above (notice no screws or hinges) also makes platinum frame glasses in the same style. I am a fan of their products, the design and construction is excellent. - SJX...

They are available at a few opticians but I got mine at Just Eyes in Suntec City, on the second level facing Carrefour hypermart. Best to call though, I recall they are closed on one week day but I can't remember which. The frames are expensive ($700-800 ... 

Great frames btw SJX!

Platinum Pens

Stephen you should also check out on the Platinum brand of pens- they're Japanese made and you could be lucky to commission them to make a pure platinum pen for you.

Platinum has made a platinum pen I believe

They have a series of pens in precious metals, sterling silver, gold, or platinum, including an interesting one in hand-hammered sterling silver. They are rarely seen outside of Japan though, so BluNotte you are located in the best possible place. - SJX

I prefer these Riedel Vitis Cabernet glasses. Got a set of four maybe 4 months ago and haven't broken one yet! **knocks on wood** Beautifully shaped glasses IMO and one piece too. Only problem about these glasses is that it's difficult to clean the very b...
