Description
This clear glass whisky tumbler marks a 60th birthday in the simplest way, with a raised silver 60 set on its side and the word SIXTY on its silver base. The 3D numeral stands proud of the glass in a neat, rounded typeface, so the number catches the light whichever way the tumbler is turned, and because the glass is clear, the 60 still shows from the back, reading in reverse. It is a round, straight-sided tumbler, 10cm tall and 8.5cm across, a comfortable size to hold in one hand for a measure of whisky over ice. The silver of the numeral and the base is the only colour, so it sits happily alongside plain glassware.
We see it as a birthday gift first: something to raise at a 60th celebration and then keep. It suits a drinks cabinet, a home bar shelf or a sideboard beside a decanter, and it is just as much at home on a desk or a bookshelf as a keepsake of the day. Give it with a favourite bottle and it becomes a ready-made present for anyone reaching sixty, or keep it back for the toast at a party and hand it over afterwards.
The tumbler stands on a broad silver base with a softly stepped edge, which gives it a steady footing on a table or tray. The numeral is fixed to the outside of the glass, so the inside stays smooth and easy to rinse. For care, we would wash it gently by hand in warm soapy water and dry it with a soft cloth, then polish the silver parts with a dry cloth to keep them bright. Wrapped in tissue with a card, it makes a thoughtful 60th birthday present, and set on a small tray with a bottle of whisky, it looks every bit the occasion.
