Set of 6 crystal cocktail glasses, designed by herbert kny for veb glaswerke schmiedefeld, east germany (gdr), 1960s. Lead crystal with cobalt overlay ("cut-to-clear") – blue glass is layered over a clear crystal body and then cut so deeply that the clear layer becomes visible. The set of six glasses features a seven-faceted cut, as well as a cut and polished rim and base. The seven clear, upward-facing cut sections, together with the cobalt blue overlay, create a delicate, flower-like play of light.
