Each clear glass is decorated with a lively underwater scene of stylized turquoise and metallic silver fish swimming among delicate horizontal lines. Oversized outlined fish mingle with tiny schools of geometric fish, creating a wonderfully playful pattern that changes as the glass is turned. The turquoise, silver and clear glass combination is quintessential mid-century cocktail-bar style.
