Wedding Goblets by Benjamin Lignel

Let me spell this out: this is not a ring-hanger, nor some complicated chin support.
This weird goblet is meant to be put on, and worn under the hand: this is proper drinking equipment. Take a groom, a bride: once this apparatus fitted on them, you pour the betrothal 
wine into the recently adorned palms of their hand: they must drink into each other’s hand, 
drink up from this ephemeral chalice.
