Retro Soda Can Glass Tumbler Nostalgic Barware

With full disclosure…I designed the pattern for these glasses. I ordered to be certain folks who order from my shop get what they expected. Ohhhh my goodness. The pattern is beautifully rendered; colors deep, rich, crisp and on the target. The most important aspect of this review is about the printing that follows. Although they must be washed by-hand, I view these glasses as heirloom pieces—I will be handing them down as being very special, even though they can certainly be used for every-day dining. I also like the fact that they can be ordered one-at-a-time if another glass is wanted/needed. Going to be great for those Summer parties and cozy evening get-togethers. The printing is exquisite!! High-quality product from center of the design to the edges the printing is superb! Deep, rich colors, feels good in the hand, and the seam where the design meets is well, seamless! I won’t hesitate to create more glasses and sets using this company for myself as well as for customers. Thank you for producing this very fine glassware!

Review of 3-photograph "can" drinking glass with customer-provided photographic images & text. I created designs of coffee mugs with images & text on ZAZZLE web site & purchased . Fundamental quality of mugs (no images & text) is always very good. Quality with images & text applied ranged from very good to unacceptable. Designs distorted (e.g., text not parallel to planes of upper & lower boundaries of mug), colors not quite same as in design, text & images are blurry, & “bleeding” of colors. Images & text on mug very resistant to fading & scratching when mugs washed in automatic dish washer. I tried “can” drinking glass seeking better quality & consistency of printed images & text than w/mugs. Penalty: “can” drinking glass MUST be hand-washed (no automatic dish washer). I purchased custom-design “can” glasses, in 3 separate orders, each with quantity 1, all with very same design. Quality has been very consistent. No distortion of images or text. Resolution (sharpness) of images & text is better & more consistent for “can” glass than for mug. I made font size for “can” glass smaller than for mug, but still easily readable. Fidelity and “bleeding” of colors is the same for “can” glass & mug. Text looks as if each character is casting a colored shadow. These phenomena are only noticeable as seen in bright light, wearing spectacles/contact lenses (as needed), with “can” glass no more than 12 inches away. I am content (but not thrilled) with my “can” glasses.
