An absolutely stunning set of four "Hock Wine" crystal glasses in what is typically referred to as a "Cut to Clear" pattern. We searched everywhere but could not find the exact pattern name. Looking at the shape of the foot and stem, we are convinced these were made by Ajka but were unable to confirm. Either way, these are high quality crystal and the pattern is just gorgeous, with large ovals between X's and fans. The multi-sided stem is just as beautiful, and the base is finished with radiating lines forming a circle. Hand wash only.

These smaller, rounded wine glasses are used for Hock wine, the European term for a wine from the Rhine region such as Riesling, but they are perfect for drinking any white wine. Although the look says "special occasion," these should be enjoyed often. Each piece is uniquely hand cut by European artists, and each one is a work of art.
