About 90% of the time, I'm serving out of the custom glassware we had made for the bar. The other 10% of the time, I'm serving out of vintage glassware. Of particular interest to you guys is the Noritake Bamboo glassware. The pieces are etched with bamboo stalks and leaves. It was a very popular pattern, and as such, there's a ton of it out there, very affordable, and just gorgeous, delicate, high quality stuff. And variety! Oh my goodness, you'd go crazy trying to track down all the different shapes available out there.

I just grabbed this picture from a current eBay auction for brandy snifters (which is what I use for serving straight rum in my bar):

Here's a link to an eBay search for "noritake bamboo glasses":
