John Derian vintage hotel series

John Derian's hotel series evokes something of the glamour of travel in the early twentieth century. 

It's a collection of glass plates, trays and coasters based around the typography and imagery produced by luxury hotels around the world. The range includes Zurich, Paris, Grenoble, Rome and, of course, Torquay as pictured above. Each piece of glass is hand-blown, making these luxury items in themselves. 

Prices vary from piece to piece: this Torquay plate is £59.
