    Well one down and 3 to go at least I think so. Maybe there were six glasses in a set. I already have the decanter and I need the glasses. Never thought I'd really find any so this was a nice surprise. It seems rather large in proportion to the decanter so it probably goes with a larger pitcher set. This glass is 5" tall and more like a tumbler. It's almost as big as my decanter so I don't believe it's part of my set. Still a nice find though. -Mike-

    Here's my pitcher:

      There was another smaller pitcher there with 3 small glass. Same ice theme only more like ice cubes for the glass bases not bumpy. They were about twice the size of a shot glass. I wonder if I made a mistake not buying that set. could have been some more Tapio Wirkkala. I'm going back tomorrow but you all know how that can go :P -Mike-
