    These are two deceptive goblets we bought a month ago here near our hous to a new dealer. Here they are call "copas robadoras", literally translated means burglar goblets, because they contain much less liquid of what it seems. I was not sure about its age but when I put them under the black light they were green, so they contain some amount of uranium, though not as much as other glasses we have (second pic). I think they are English perhaps 1910. Thanks for watching.

      you know surf I think that idiomatic differences reflects cultural differences jaja, here if you invite someone you serve him as much as he wants....How are your glasses?
