3 Beaded Topette
An antique absinthe topette (decanter)
In mouth-blown glass, as you can still see the trace of the cane under the carafe.
There's a hole, I think on purpose, in the cork.
Each bead represents a dose of absinthe. The most common is the double rim, as these carafes are also used for other spirits. Hence the double dose: one dose (1 bourrelet) in the coffee and then the second dose afterwards, the famous ‘pousse-café’!
You pour a slug of absinthe into the glass and then simply put the sugar on the spoon above the glass and let the water run down before tasting.
Very practical for cafe owners to calculate the number of glasses you have drunk.
