    looks like purplish pink. Well I decided to get them without knowing who made them. Now that I am back home from a mad day at the thrift store 50% off Election Day Sale, burnt out from the crowds I can concentrate relax and take some better images on these glasses. These purplish pink goblet wit twisted stems.

    They look a lot like and may be

    They look like some crystal ones I have at the store.
    I discovered mine were Czechoslovakian.

    here some better images looks like the Lisa pattern by George Borgfeldt. Is Borgfeldt a Czechoslovakian Name? If they are the Lisa pattern they are 6 1/4" water Goblet.These glasses are paper thin would that make them hand blown? 20181106_213750.jpg 20181106_213756.jpg 20181106_225013.jpg 20181106_225039.jpg

    I believe that the R site shows both the plain and the vertical optic. The Optic version of the glass has what I think of as a panel in the glass. Vertical optic means the panel goes up and down the stem and you can see the line of the optic panel. Plain is plain, no embellishments in the glass.

    I mis-spoke. I meant to write up and down the bowl, not the stem. I believe the stems are twisted and are the same on both versions. But yes, you're right. I used my spyglass and your stems look like the optic version in the photo that shows all of them together.

    I have quite a few of these these, they were my parents wedding crystal. They were hand blown in Germany. Borgfeldt is a German name. My mom told me the factory where they were made went behind the Iron Curtain in Berlin when The Wall was built so I don't have as many water goblets and juice glasses as I have wine glasses and sherbet dishes.
