Kiddush Cup

thingiverse

This is a kiddush cup made to hold a glass insert. Glass votive candle holders from Pier1 Imports (SKU 1001450) fit perfectly inside it. I have created three different versions: one with a left-hand twist, another with a right-hand twist, and a third design that features a swirl pattern. Update: On March 23rd, 2016, Shapeways successfully printed the kiddush cup in polished nickel steel after making some minor adjustments to its design. Check it out at http://shpws.me/LZam.
