Copper Glass (Special)

A copper drinking glass, listed as Glass (Special). Copper glasses are traditionally kept for plain drinking water, often filled from a copper jug or bottle.

It suits a bedside table, an office desk or the dining table, and copper glass sets are a common gift. Hotels and restaurants use them for water service.

Keep it for plain water at room temperature: no hot, lemon or flavoured water. Copper darkens inside with use; clean it with lemon and salt or tamarind, rinse and dry.
