Duralex Gigogne Tumblers, 9cl, Pack of 6

A box of 6 9cl shot glasses. Teetering on the verge of (and into) bankruptcy for much of the past decade, Duralex has been resurrected once again following a management buyout. Made from pressed glass and tempered using a process developed by Saint-Gobain in 1936, these glasses are chip, shock, and heat resistant, microwave, and dishwasher safe. For these reasons the Gigogne was once ubiquitous throughout institutional canteens - to many they are the archetypal school tumbler, although personally they conjure mouthfuls of rough wine washing down a marvellous aile de raie aux câpres in an earthy fishermans café on the back streets of Yport. Each glass is stamped with a serial number from 1 to 48, for reasons we have yet to discover… (actually its probably so they can quality control the moulds.)
