Title: Nice glasses till you wash them
Review: My wife & I recently ordered three sets of these glasses. One of the sets was missing a glass when it arrived, but that's another story :) Upon initial inspection of the glasses they seemed well worth the money. There were no defects with any of the glasses themselves (chips, etc.) and the painting on them looks very nice. However, be very careful when washing them. If the water temperature is any warmer then cool (as the enclosed slips of paper warn), you will instantly lose the paint on the base of the glass. For some reason, the paint on the upper portion of the glass seems at least a bit more durable. Also, for whatever reason, Block Basics stuck a circular glued on tag on the top of the base covering a portion of the paint. I have found no way of removing these tags, including soaking the glass in cold water, without losing the paint that is under them. I'd have rated these glasses a minimum of 4 stars if the paint job was more durable.
