Description
This glass and metal whiskey tumbler carries a shiny metal Spitfire plane on the glass and the word SPITFIRE in raised capitals on the front of its metal base. The plane faces upward with its wings spread, the round markings picked out on each wing and the propeller at the nose, so the shape is easy to recognise from across the table. The glass is clear and round, and its clear bottom sits snugly inside the polished metal collar. It stands 10.5cm tall and 8.5cm across, a familiar tumbler size that sits comfortably in the hand.
We see it most at home on a drinks trolley, a bar shelf or a desk in a study, where the silver-coloured metal catches the light against the clear glass. It suits a measure of whiskey, a cold soft drink or simply a place on display beside other keepsakes. As a Father's Day gift it makes a thoughtful choice, and the raised SPITFIRE lettering means the theme needs no explanation once the wrapping comes off. The plane sits at the front where it can be seen as the glass is lifted, so it is as good to look at on the shelf as it is in use.
The tumbler pairs clear glass with a shiny metal base and plane emblem, giving it a bright, polished finish that suits a traditional room as well as a modern one. To keep it looking its best, we suggest washing it gently by hand in warm soapy water and drying it straight away with a soft cloth, which keeps the metal bright and the glass free of water marks. Between uses, a soft dry cloth will lift fingerprints from the metal. For gifting, wrap it in tissue with a handwritten card, or set it on a tray beside a favourite bottle for a ready-made Father's Day surprise.
