crystal

Liz West

When I was a kid, we lived in a big Victorian house with a dining room and butler's pantry. We had a formal set of china and silverware, as well as formal glassware. Our glasses were cut crystal, and we had them in many sizes, from large goblets to very small liqueur glasses. I love those glasses, because they sparkled in the light. When my mom died, it made sense for my brother to take the large glasses, since he has a large house and dining room. I kept the smaller glasses. When I visit him, I love to see this crystal, which is kept in a cupboard with mirrored shelves and an overhead light.
