Happy hour goes ultra chic with these
unusually shaped Float Glassware ves-
sels from Vancouver, Ca.-based Molo.
The thermally resistant glassware boasts
simple forms and clean lines to empha-
size the expressive colors and charms of
everything from champagne to martinis.
The contemporary, suspended-bowl
design of the Float pieces creates a lens
of liquid color that projects a play of
colored light onto tablescapes. Master
glassblowers from the Czech Republic handcraft each piece, which comes in well-
wrapped cylindrical packaging. Not into bubbly or martinis? Consider them for
liqueurs, ice wines or even bud vases.
Champagne glasses, $89 per pair; martini glasses, $99 a pair, Maddalena De-
sign, 36801 Woodward Ave., Suite 300, Birmingham, (248) 644-4919.
Pink diamonds are extremely rare and only a very
limited number are made available to the public
each year. Jennifer Lopez helped increase demand
when she received a pink-diamond engagement
ring. The coveted baubles shown here feature a platinum/ 18
karat gold three-stone diamond ring, $132,000; and a platinum, 18-karat dia-
mond ring with radiant-cut center, $110,000.
