Each cylindrical double old fashioned glass features a softly frosted finish accented by a large metallic-gold Chinese shou medallion, the traditional symbol associated with longevity and long life. The clear glass rims and bases provide a crisp contrast to the frosted bodies, while the diminutive GUMP’S signature appears in gold near the base of each glass.

The combination of frosted glass, gleaming gold and Chinese-inspired decoration gives the set a wonderfully sophisticated vintage entertaining look—equally at home in a Hollywood Regency, Chinoiserie, Palm Beach, Asian Modern, eclectic or maximalist interior. Particularly handsome on a lacquered bar cart or paired with brass and bamboo accessories.

A complete set of eight makes these especially appealing for entertaining. Perfect for whiskey, bourbon, an Old Fashioned or cocktails on the rocks.
