These items are New Old Stock that were obtained by my wife and I for use in a coffee shop that we owned in the early 2000's to serve a range of Mövenpick ice creams, but were never used. I include a pic of our ice cream menu for provenance.
Please see my other listing's for more of the same glassware as in total I have 18 Banana leaf bowls and 18 Compotes.
