Vanessa Tortoise drikkeglass-kolleksjon

The melted glass bits give the bowl this rippled, water-like shimmer that shifts as you move the glass — guests keep picking them up to look closer. Heavier in the hand than I expected too, which makes them feel sturdier than my old set.

Held one up to the window and the tortoise pattern actually seems to ripple like water. That optical effect from the melted colored glass is even prettier in person than in the photos.

The little melted glass bits genuinely make it look like you're peering through water when the light hits them. I set them out for a dinner party and two guests picked up their glasses just to tilt them around.
