***To ensure complete transparency before offerding or buying, there are minor historical dings, surface scuffs, and slight out-of-round flattening on the lower rim edges of the flared silver pedestal bases from normal handling over the decades (carefully documented with a ruler in the final photos). The glasses still stand perfectly flat, stable, and upright for a beautiful home bar display.****
