This is the most beautiful Tango set I've ever had! Bohemian / Czechoslovakian Tango cordials, original bottle with a sweet, unusual stopper. (The cocktail glass in the third picture is just for comparing the sizes.) The cordials are 3.25" high, and the bottle with the stopper in place is 7" high. These glasses are cased, thin, and light weight. I have never seen like this before and unfortunately they are unsigned. Has anyone ever seen a set like this?
I'm glad you like them! :)))
Now that is an awesome set...
what does the bottom look like. they're awesome but I don't think loetz.
wow this looks amazing! I've never seen tango pieces by Lauscha, but delicate work on these reminds me of them. I'm not confident but that is what I would guess.
Lovely !!
Could be by many a Bohemian maker

Thanks for the comments, I am happy you like this set! :) Actually I purchased it many years ago at eBay as "Bimini Tango", but I have never seen Tango from Bimini Werkstatte. I just found on the net a Bimini Mermaid bottle, which has the same blown stopper as mine (without the mermaid of course :)) ) Please take a look at http://www.rubylane.com/item/150922-twt1417/Classic-Deco-Bimini-Mermaids-Decanter I do not even know, if this set in the link is original, or not. I absolutely don't know Bimini glass.
I will make a photo collage about the details of my set. May be someone out there will know, what I have.
Yeah that's a heck of a set, kind of thing you see on the first page of eBay's Highest Prices First under "Bohemian tango." Where did the martini glass in #3 come from? Are there more pieces to this set?
Yes I have a small collection of Tango barware and a set of pink Tango sherbets, you can see them here:

The all came from eBay, many-many years ago. A few of the cocktail glasses are marked with circular acid etched mark: "Made in Czechoslovakia" and the Rockwell shield for the sterling decoration.
I found something online which is similar in design and decor, and it is listed as Bimini as well. That's pretty good evidence for Bimini being the manufacturer.
