I was so excited to receive this glass, and when it arrived it was beautiful and appeared to be good quality. But after just one wash the blue color on the (outside) bottom started chipping away-- even though I handwashed it with a nonscratch sponge. Now with every use more of the blue color chips away. The lettering is holding up and the glass itself is nice, but the blue tint on the bottom really made it awesome and I'm disappointed that it's already wearing away.
