Sake Set
A consists of the flask and cups used to serve ''sake''. ''Sake'' sets are most often in Japanese pottery, but may be wood, lacquered wood, glass or plastic. The flask and cups may be sold individually or as a set. Sake cups are normally small, with variable shapes but based on traditional bowls used for tea. They are normally without handles, and most often without stems. Server The server of a ''sake'' set is a flask called a ''tokkuri'' (). A ''tokkuri'' is generally bulbous with a narrow neck, which tends to be called a "flask" in English, but may have a variety of other shapes, including that of a spouted vessel (''katakuchi''), similar to a Western teapot. Traditionally, heated ''sake'' is often warmed by placing the ''sake''-filled ''tokkuri'' in a pan of hot water, and thus the narrowed neck would prevent the heat from escaping. In more authentic places such as '' oden'' bars and '' ryōtei'' in Japan, sake is sometimes warmed and served in metal containers known a ...

Faceted Glass
A faceted glass or granyonyi stakan (, literally ''faceted glass'') (, derived from ''грань'', meaning ''facet'') is a type of drinkware made from especially hard and thick glass and having a faceted form. It is a very widespread form of drinking glass in Russia and the former Soviet Union. Origins The antecedents of the faceted glass in Russian history are dated back to the reign of Peter the Great, who valued the design as being less likely to roll off tables aboard ships. Glasses with different numbers of facets were produced in Tsarist Russia, with the museum collection in Vladimir-Suzdal including different types of faceted glass, some intended for drinking tea, others for drinking champagne. The museum also holds examples of early 10-, 12-, 16-sided glasses. The design appeared in still-life paintings by Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, though the pre-Soviet designs were commonly cylindrical, with wider facets, and lacked the smooth rim of the later designs. The first Soviet gl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Old English
Old English ( or , or ), or Anglo-Saxon, is the earliest recorded form of the English language, spoken in England and southern and eastern Scotland in the Early Middle Ages. It developed from the languages brought to Great Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the mid-5th century, and the first Old English literature dates from the mid-7th century. After the Norman Conquest of 1066, English was replaced for several centuries by Anglo-Norman language, Anglo-Norman (a langues d'oïl, type of French) as the language of the upper classes. This is regarded as marking the end of the Old English era, since during the subsequent period the English language was heavily influenced by Anglo-Norman, developing into what is now known as Middle English in England and Early Scots in Scotland. Old English developed from a set of Anglo-Frisian or Ingvaeonic dialects originally spoken by Germanic tribes traditionally known as the Angles (tribe), Angles, Saxons and Jutes. As the Germanic settlers ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Middle English
Middle English (abbreviated to ME) is a form of the English language that was spoken after the Norman Conquest of 1066, until the late 15th century. The English language underwent distinct variations and developments following the Old English period. Scholarly opinion varies, but the University of Valencia states the period when Middle English was spoken as being from 1150 to 1500. This stage of the development of the English language roughly coincided with the High Middle Ages, High and Late Middle Ages. Middle English saw significant changes to its vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and orthography. Writing conventions during the Middle English period varied widely. Examples of writing from this period that have survived show extensive regional variation. The more standardized Old English literary variety broke down and writing in English became fragmented and localized and was, for the most part, being improvised. By the end of the period (about 1470), and aided by the movabl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tumbler (glass)
A tumbler is a flat-floored beverage container usually made of plastic, glass or stainless steel. Theories vary as to the etymology of the word ''tumbler''. One such theory is that the glass originally had a pointed or convex base and could not be set down without spilling. Another is that they had weighted bottoms which caused them to right themselves if knocked over. Originally, the term tumbler referred to a type of drinking glass with a pointed or rounded base, which prevented it from being put down until it was empty, encouraging the drinker to finish their beverage in one go. Over time, the design evolved into the flat-bottomed glassware that is known today, which can comfortably sit on tables and counters without tipping over. The modern tumbler comes in various sizes and shapes, designed to accommodate a wide range of beverages from water and juice to sophisticated cocktails. Tumblers can also be adorned with decor, such as gemstones and rhinestones. Types of tumblers ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Trembleuse
A ''trembleuse'', also known as a ''tasse trembleuse'' or chocolate cup, is a pottery drinking cup and saucer with the saucer given a raised holding area, called the "gallery", in which the cup sits more securely than in the normal style. The saucer therefore becomes more of a cup holder than the normal shallow near-plate. A different designalso often called a ''trembleuse'', or ''gobelet et soucoupe enfoncé'' in 18th-century Sèvres catalogueshas a socket or well below the main plane of the saucer, in which the cup sits, achieving a similar effect of stability. The main plane of the saucer is raised high. In both types, the cups are mostly in porcelain (or bone china) with some in high quality earthenware such as creamware. The saucers normally match the cups, but are sometimes in silver, or even partly in gold. Usage They allowed people with a weak grip or a medical condition involving shaking or trembling hands to drink a beverage, initially tea or hot chocolate; w ...

Tiki Mug
A tiki mug is a large ceramic cocktail drinking vessel that originated in tiki bars and tropical-themed restaurants. The term "tiki mug" is a blanket term for the sculptural drinkware even though they vary in size and most do not contain handles. They typically depict Polynesian, mock-Polynesian, tropical, nautical, or retro themes, and as the term is used generically do not always emulate a tiki. When used to serve drinks they are frequently garnished with fruit or decorative drink umbrellas and swizzle sticks. Outside of tiki enthusiasts, the mugs are not commonly seen in use beyond tiki bars and restaurants, but some collect them as examples of kitsch. History What many would consider to be the earliest US "tiki mugs" were ceramics in the shape of a skull or an ordinary ceramic vessel with a hula girl-related motif. Mugs meant to emulate a tiki carving, what some would consider to be a "true" tiki mug, did not come to the United States until the late 1950s. A little-known an ...
