MiG 29 Engraved Whiskey Glass
Few fighters announce their presence like the MiG-29. Compact, aggressive, and brutally capable, the MiG-29 earned a reputation as a close-in dogfighter that could change the outcome of a battle in seconds. The MiG-29 Engraved Whiskey Glass is a tribute to this iconic jet and its distinguished journey in Indian service—first as an air-defence sentinel and later as a sea-going warrior.
Precision engraved in crisp technical line art, the glass captures the MiG-29’s muscular stance—twin intakes, widely spaced engines, and purposeful wings—an aircraft designed to fight and win.
Why the MiG-29 is legendary in India
-
The Air Force’s sharp spear (1980s–2000s)
Inducted into the Indian Air Force in the mid-1980s, the MiG-29 instantly transformed India’s air-defence capability. At a time when beyond-visual-range combat and high-performance interceptors were redefining air power, the MiG-29 brought speed, climb rate, and agility that demanded respect. -
A dogfighter’s reputation
Globally—and in Indian training—the MiG-29 became known for its close-combat prowess. Its helmet-mounted sight and high off-boresight missiles allowed pilots to engage targets at angles that surprised adversaries. Among aviators, it earned the quiet confidence of a jet that excelled when fights got tight. -
Modernised to stay relevant
Rather than retire early, India invested in comprehensive upgrades, transforming the fleet into the MiG-29UPG with modern avionics, radar, and weapons. The result was a fighter that bridged generations—classic airframe, contemporary combat systems. -
From runway to carrier deck
In one of the most remarkable chapters of its story, the MiG-29 adapted to naval life as the MiG-29K. Serving with the Indian Navy, it became the backbone of India’s carrier aviation, operating from INS Vikramaditya. Few fighters can claim successful service in both air-force and carrier-borne roles for the same country. -
Sea-going muscle
Naval MiG-29Ks brought air defence and strike capability to India’s maritime domain, flying demanding deck operations where precision, discipline, and reliability are non-negotiable. The transition from land to sea cemented the MiG-29’s reputation for adaptability. -
A pilot’s aircraft
Ask those who flew it, and you’ll hear the same refrain: the MiG-29 rewards decisive hands. It is fast, responsive, and honest—an aircraft that expects commitment and gives confidence in return.

The Making
Each Glass Collection concept starts with procuring detailed blueprints of the design and then designing the cuts on Adobe Illustrator. These drawings are then passed on to the laser which then cuts fine lines on the glass. These are then hand engraved again to a shimmering finish with brilliant clarity.
The video shown here is of the hand engraving process which follows the laser cut.
