New goblets addes to the Sip of gold collection from SIEGER by FÜRSTENBERG

Graceful and enticing – the new tumblers in the “Sip of Gold” collection combine gleaming precious metal, jet black and pure white in four sensuous decors: graphic stars or dots, a crystalline diamond pattern and striking check. The goblets are just as appealing to drink from as they are to look at: delicate and wafer-thin, with a wall thickness of around two millimetres, they sit lightly and elegantly in the hand. If you fill the tumblers with sparkling drinks, the light is reflected hundreds of times, creating the impression of liquid gold.

 

The black and white goblets in four different designs – Stars, Dots, Diamonds, Check – supplement the 14 existing models in the collection. Some of the models are smooth, others feature a delicate relief, but all of them can be combined in countless new and unique ways. Michael Sieger drew his inspiration for these exceptional drinking vessels from a classic silver goblet that he was given as a gift by his wife and muse, Bettina. The antique tumbler quickly became his personal favourite piece, and he created the “Sip of Gold” collection (2005) as a modern adaptation of the design.
