Drinking set (19) - Crystal - Copy, Holmegaard, Doyen

For the connoisseur of high-quality international mid-century design and the passionate UV collector: an exceptional 21-piece 'Kopstoot' café collection of museum quality.

This thematic top lot brings the nostalgic café tradition to life (robust beers paired with characterful tasting glasses) and combines it with the absolute masterpieces from Dutch, Danish, and Belgian glass history from the Art Deco period (the 1930s/1940s).
A unique focal point for a high-end home bar, man cave, or UV display cabinet.

The International Design Trio – Copier, Holmegaard & Doyen: The absolute crown pieces of this lot are the rare glasses with the jet-black elements, sourced from the three greatest powers of North European glass art:

- 5x Original A.D. Copier Model "Scandia" (Glasfabriek Leerdam, NL):
An iconic Dutch Design design with a hexagonally faceted bowl on a wide, flat black glass foot [g2].
- 2x Original Holmegaard Model "Aalholm" (Denmark):
Extremely rare Danish classics, instantly recognizable by the sturdy, modernist stem built from stacked, ribbed black glass discs.
- 3x Original Doyen Aperitif Glasses (Belgium):
Magnificent Belgian Art Deco pieces, featuring a finely etched bowl resting on a very characteristic, elegant black tulip foot.

Magical Light Show (High-Manganese & Silhouette Effect): During the photo shoot under a 365nm UV lamp, these historic glasses, together with the beautiful Belgian beer glasses, transform into a fabulous spectacle. Thanks to the exceptionally high historic manga content in the vintage glassware, the goblets glow intensely and bright green. With the Copier-, Holmegaard- and Doyen glasses, an astonishing Art Deco effect emerges: the goblets glow bright green, while the black elements remain jet-black silhouettes!
