HNY


Happy New Year all round.


The glass is from the "Name Your Poison" set by Georges Briard - top mid-century designer of glasses, dishware etc.  I have always said that anything tastes better when drunk from a skull (or even a glass with a skull on it).

Interesting isn't it that we've adjusted so easily to the idea of having skulls around us on glasses, tee-shirts, sneakers and whatever.  But not all of Briard's designs sit quiet so happily with the current sensibility. He also designed this "Your Pickled Personality" set.


Is anything more fun than a Pyromaniac with a drink in his hand?
