Vintage Soviet ERA GRANENNIY STAKAN 6 pc.  for your collection       6 Russian GRANENNIY  Stakans for Tea or VODKA   Table-glass or granyonyi stakan (Russian: гранёный стакан, literally faceted glass) or granchak (Russian: гранчак, derived from грань, meaning facet) is a type of drinkware made from especially hard and thickglass and having a faceted form.   It is a very widespread form of drinking glass in Russia and the former Soviet Union. Granyonyi stakan has certain advantages over the other drinkware, since due to its form and hardness it is more difficult to break. It is arguably more handy in usage on moving trains or rolling ships, where it is less prone to decline and fall, or slip from hands, and less likely to be broken when hitting the floor, compared to non-faceted types of drinking glasses.   Granyony stakan may be used to drink any type of beverage, including vodka and tea. It is often used in combination with tea glass-holder (podstakannik).   The classical form of Russian and Soviet granchak is that with 14 facets. Such glasses have been produced since 1943 at a factory in the city of Gus-Khrustalny, the famous center of Russian glass-making. According to one theory, this version of drinking glass became a preferred one and was massively produced in the Soviet Union because it was more fit to be washed using dish washing machines original - Old Stock -           Description Standard dimensions of 250 ml Table-Glasses which were produced in the USSR: Top diameter: 7,2-7,3 cm; Bottom diameter: 5.5 cm; Height: 10.5 cm; Number of faces: 16, 20 (and possibly other values) Terms , Shipping & Other Info I accept PayPal  , Moneybookers and Wire bank transfer, $ or € (IBAN / BIC, SWIFT) I send WORLDWIDE in within 24 hours after receipt of payment by Economy  or Expedited (EMS) Registered AIR Mail.
