You remember these glasses from your last trip to #France, I guess.

They're now a coop? Cool! I love Duralex glassware! Now, I'll buy more of it!

@jwildeboer They don't deliver to although, technically speaking, it's definitely in the "geographical area". 🥺

@jwildeboer Must look out for shops that carry them. And I think they should consider purchising power...

@jwildeboer @dascandy the basic problem with duralex as a business in capitalism is that their products last forever so you don’t ever need to replace them.

@jwildeboer I've been having a hard time finding good juice glasses, like 6 oz. These are lovely, and come in many sizes. AND ship to the US for not much more than you'd pay for something shipped from here. They're reasonably priced too.

Sigh! Not the UK, what a surprise

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

@njeanneburns Or simply go to https://www.duralexusa.com/

@jwildeboer I bought a set of these glasses many years ago and love them deeply. These are what glasses are supposed to be.

@jwildeboer

Are these the mythical unbreakable glasses I've been hearing about?!?

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

@float13 They are definitely not unbreakable, I can tell from personal experience But they don't break that easy, due to being tempered.

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

Why square? Because they are a good compromise between storage space used v content storage offered. Round is definitely more pretty on the table, though.

@julesbl @jwildeboer Yeah, and both our countries have but themselves to blame with some astounding voting behaviour. Not that this makes it any better for the people that voted differently. 🥹

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

@frauxirah @julesbl You “just” need to get Migros (CH) or Wayfair (UK) to add Duralex to their online shops …

xirah

@jwildeboer @julesbl Oh, yes if course! Why didn't I think of that, easy peasy. I'll email them right away! 🥰
Or, preferably: next holiday in France is just a TGV away.

@jwildeboer :rainbow_heart: is this chemical hardened glass? i am looking for that

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

@frauxirah or ski with an empty backpack across the border and fill it up Sorry, @julesbl that that won’t be an option for you. But you could take the Eurostar …

@jwildeboer They should fix their translations, though. Can't tell about Dutch, but all other languages except French are wrong ("lot de 6" → "lot of 6" instead of "set of 6", etc.)
