Picardie glasses fit in the hand beautifully and are extremely tough and durable, and with a little bit of care will last for decades without breaking or chipping. Duralex glassware offers more than just durable, classic drinking glasses, bowls and dinnerware; it offers a connection to the past, and a rich his- tory in the memories of French men and women and others across Europe. Duralex is a magical name for several generations of adults, reminding them of childhood when they drank from these glasses every day in cafeterias and in their homes. The glassware is remembered fondly for the little inlaid numbers, one through 48, found at the bottom of the canteen tumblers. These numbers were a source of daily games for students at lunchtime, some direct- ed by teachers, others by the students. There were several games that peo- ple remember playing. One such game assigned duties where the child with the highest number at a cafeteria table had to clean the table. Another was a bingo type game, and another game used the numbers to decide the order in which one could go outside to play after lunch. The Duralex glasses were an ordinary part of daily life for decades. They went out of fashion for a little while and returned as a national treasure – an item that reminds the French of the freedoms and joys of childhood. Made of a tempered glass, the prod- ucts are non-porous so they don't retain odors, scratch or stain. They are both microwave- and dishwasher-safe and maintain a brand-new appearance even when washed with aggressive, harsh chemicals. For more information, visit booth #S857. BATHWARES BY RICHARDS IS INNOVATING, EXPANDING By Ronda Sheldon, Richards Homewares Inc. Richards Homewares, Inc. continues to grow Bathwares™ by Richards, adding new products in every section of this department that was launched in 2015. A quick preview of some of the new features: Fresh designs in Richards' anti-slip tub mats collection, including Herringbone and Scallop. Multiple tex- tures, colors and sizes are available to provide something for everyone, includ- ing patented designs and anti-slip tub appliqués. The innovative Aluminum collection added to Richards' extensive rust proof bath shower caddies and floor shelving units. In addition to introducing alu- minum and rose gold finishes, Richards has new styles in the popular chrome, bronze and satin finishes. Richards' patent pending clip and lock system for its tension pole organiz- ers allows the shelves to be easily attached or moved without moving other shelves or the pole. This feature also secures the shelves in a horizontal posi- tion and prevents them from sagging under normal weight and use. Richards' patent pending tub vent cover allows for a deep soak in a standard tub. The cover secures around the tub's overflow to allow an additional 4 inches of warm bath water, ideal for deep soaking and relaxing. Richards also has a selection of luxurious bath pil- lows to enhance that deep soak. The Nail Boutique is a must-have addition to the Clearly Chic Collection, Richards' complete line of products to beautifully organize cosmetics and jewel- ry in the bathroom. The Nail Boutique was designed especially for Richards, and holds 30 nail polishes, nail embellish- ments and a variety of nail tools. Richards has developed a creative solution for all the special bath storage needs: rolling carts in various sizes to fit any space; attractive over the door and over the cabinet bars and hooks add instant hanging space; patent pending suction cup baskets and shelves, which adhere to rough textured surfaces without adhesives, and decorative trays for stor- age on the top of the toilet.
