Deal on Riedel Glasses

[Grape Stuff]

OK, my first comparison was done rather hastily, and I decided to take a closer look. The TJ glasses are not identical to the regular Vinums I've got. The are identical in height, the base is the same diameter and thickness, but the bowl is ever so slightly narrower, and the mouth again has a slightly smaller diameter, and yes the walls are a bit thicker. So what fooled me was the weight (thicker glass, but smaller bowl makes for it about the same overall weight), and the height and base were the same. But I can't seem find these on the Riedel website, so maybe the restaurant version is what they are. in the end though, I still got a great deal on authentic crystal Riedles, for a few bucks.
