The complete 9-piece collection consists of:
• Gold / Amber-Orange Series (5 objects):

• 3x Wine glasses / balloon glasses with twisted golden-yellow stems that continue into the bowls and culminate in detailed metal flower cups (produced in 1983).

• Turquoise-Blue Series (4 objects):

• 3x Champagne / coupe glasses with elegant, deep-blue twisted stems.

• 1x Large matching designer bowl / centerpiece with turquoise-blue elements.

Unique Collectible Features & Authenticity:

• Limited Edition: The turquoise-blue series is Number 1 of a worldwide edition of only 30 pieces ('1/30ml').

• Dated: The gold series is dated '83 (1983).

• Model numbers: Bearing original studio codes and unique recipe numbers (including 2679-47 and 21913).
Specifications:

• Material: Hand-blown glass, metal and color pigments

• Style: Postmodern, Memphis-style influences, 1980s design, studio glass
