Set of Vintage “Krepysh” Shot Glasses — Neodymium (Amethyst/Alexandrite) Glass

A rare complete set of 6 “Krepysh” shot glasses made from neodymium (also known as amethyst or alexandrite) glass — a material famous for its magical color-shifting properties.
Produced at the historic Gus-Khrustalny Crystal Factory, these glasses are one of the most sought-after examples of late Soviet artistic glass.

Neodymium glass contains rare-earth elements that allow it to change color depending on the light:

• in daylight — a soft lavender or pale amethyst,

• under warm artificial light — a cooler bluish tone.

This natural transformation makes the set feel alive, turning even a simple table into a small performance of light and shade.

Features

• Authentic USSR neodymium / alexandrite glass
