Style note — products made in the Art Nouveau style are extremely elegant and easily recognisable. The forms that are inspired by the nature, flowing floral decoration and often asymmetrical shapes create an overall graceful composition. Even the everyday most useful items become very elegant works of art.
Facts of Lavish Fun bit — hurricane glass is a blown sleeve used to protect candle and oil lamp flames from the drought. A hurricane cocktail glass has the same shape, and that's how it got it's name.
