For our latest Breweriana post we have this beautiful decanter and shot glass set. I bought this in the small town of Mogendorf in the Westerwald (State of Rhineland-Pfalz), very near my wife's hometown. Towns like Mogendorf and Ransbach-Baumbach, which are close to my wife's house, have numerous small craftsmen all producing the Westerwald's most famous commodity: blue-gray ceramicware, the blue-gray finish being the result of the salt glazing (Salzglasur). This particular set I guess would still be considered 'blue-gray' even though it has more of a golden hue to it.
