Spode Christmas Tree Hiball Glasses, Set of 4
A holiday favorite since its introduction in 1938, Spode's Christmas Tree pattern is their most well known and widely collected holiday pattern. Evoking the holidays with a traditional evergreen, the pattern creates a warm, folksy Christmas feel that families will look forward to year after year and hold dearly in their memories for generations. The trademark tree, seemingly decorated by young hands and ringed with brightly wrapped presents underneath, stands cheerily in the center of every piece. Charming, crafty decorations encircle the tree and Santa himself--bag slung over his shoulder--stands at the top. For collecting fun, Spode adds new accessories to the pattern every year, allowing a cherished holiday tradition to grow with time. Match any piece to other items in the collection for seasonal dining merriment.To accompany a holiday meal, wind down from the holiday blitz on a relaxing evening, or while entertaining for the holidays, these simple and handsome highball glasses are just what the Dr. ordered. Each glass in this set of 4 tall, narrow-sided highballs is made of clear glass, stands 6-1/4-inches high, is 2-3/4-inches in diameter, and holds 15 ounces your favorite adult beverage. They're also suitable for serving soda pop to the kids. Like all items in the pattern, the glasses feature the pattern's calling-card Christmas tree design at center; other decorations include mistletoe and 22-karat gold trim at the top, making each sip a memorable delight. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the gold trim, and the glass should not be used in a microwave.--Jeff Dalto
