Russian Filigree
Tea Glass Holders
A Russian tea glass holder, or, as
it's known in Russian, podstakannik, literally means "under the
glass". It is a traditional way of serving and drinking Russia's
national drink, hot tea. We carry exquisite, pure silver-plated
over copper, filigree holders. Each is hand made in the artisan village
of Mstera, renown for other delicate art, such as fine miniature
painting and intricate lacework. In fact, the filigree on each holder is
reminiscent of a lacework style known as "bobbin lace". Very fine work -
you won't be disappointed by the quality.
Hard-to-find, Russian made standard glass is included with each holder, at
no extra charge. Holder with glass stands about 5" tall.
