-------------------------------------------------
The Supermarine Spitfire XIV, a highly iconic and successful British single-seat fighter aircraft that played a critical role in World War II, famously during the Battle of Britain. It was known for its speed and its clipped wings
The clipped-wing Spitfire XIV was a machine sharpened for the hunt. Stripped of its elegant rounded tips, its wings became lean and purposeful—built for raw speed and lightning-fast agility at low altitude. Down near the deck, where danger screamed in on the wings of the Fw 190, these Spitfires were at their deadliest. The clipped design reduced drag, sharpened the roll rate, and turned the iconic fighter into a ruthless predator, striking fast and hard before the enemy had a chance to react.
---------------------------------------
Spitfire was used only after the war and Fg Offr KC Mukherjee flew the latest Spit XIX in a 105-aircraft formation on 26 Jan 1951. However, he loved flying the “Clipped Wing” Spitfire-XIV, which was the fastest Spitfire amongst all its variants. -- As narrated by Gp Capt Samidh Mukherjee (Son of then Fg Offr KC Mukherjee)

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.

For me, it's a part of my husband's career...how cool is that! And cooler still when you have whiskey with ice in the glass! I bought this glass for my hubby, who was one of the pioneer members of this helicopter squadron, the first dedicated gunship Mi-25 in the IAF.
The quality of the glass is excellent, and the etching, too is awesome.
Ashwyn Fonseca

A true master piece, uniquely designed and exquisitely crafted to express your taste and personaliity. Thanks Retriever Glasses for the fine and detailed engraving.
Gp Capt Samidh Mukherjee, Veteran Indian Air Force
I don’t quite know how to thank you, Retriever Glasses. The Tempest is stunningly accurate and beautifully crafted. The weight and feel of the heavy-bottomed glass are just perfect for an evening with friends—whether it’s a shot of Single Malt or a well-made cocktail.
It brought back a wave of nostalgia from a time just before I was born, when my father, then a Flying Officer, carried out countless raids over Pakistan—bombing, rocketing, and strafing hideouts and installations in Skardu, Pandu, Tithwal, Mirpur, Nausadda, Zojila, and many other places (all this gleaned from his Log Books).
I’ll certainly be back for more—and then some. You’ve truly made my day.

I was among the very first customers to order this set, and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. I got these glasses as a gift for my Air Force–crazy friend, and she absolutely LOVED them! The quality is outstanding — the glasses have a solid, premium feel and the weight is just right, which makes them perfect to hold. What really stood out to me was the precision and detail of the engraving. The craftsmanship is so clean and sharp that it adds a really elegant touch. It’s rare to find something that combines both utility and such meaningful design so well. These glasses made for a truly special gift, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for something unique and beautifully made.
