Each of the seven deadly sins has been embodied in Kacper Hamilton’s collection of wine glasses, 7 Deadly Glasses which include lust (front image), gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride.
"Each glass encapsulates a sin, which is revealed through the ritual of drinking. The ‘7 Deadly Glasses’ are about celebrating passion and encouraging the user to be sinful in a theatrical fashion," Hamilton’s website notes.
Kacper Hamilton is a young designer based in London, England and the gorgeous ‘sin’ vessels are handmade and available as a limited edition.
