Shran uses a set from a Finnish designer, called "Ultima Thule". It's also featured as a world on the show, iirc. (I'm midway through rewatch, but Ultima Thule is definitely a world in the ST universe.)

The name come from ancient times, meaning roughly "Ultimate North", and referring to various places that no-one can really agree on.

Anyways, the other glass is also Finnish, and also used in ST: Enterprise. Whenever Archer has dinner in his quarters or they're having cake at Malcolm's bday, therr these glasses are: https://star-trek.design/glassware/tapio-goblets-by-tapio-wirkkala-for-iittala

(I wonder if this is related to my alcoholism flaring up anytime the episodes with the glasses come up.)

Fk me, that picture from last night is the last picture of it whole. Managed to be so twatted last night I must have hit it on something / hit it with a bottle. Can't recall.

Rip cognac glass. I still have a dozen of them beer glasses but should've kept the lot when I had more of these. They're just really good resale value, like 5-20€ a piece, each, and I sold like half a dozen cognag glasses, shot glasses and champagne flutes.
