The coiled exterior of the beakers come in the form of a Slinky, and are shaped from solid silver and feature a silver gilt rim. The coiled interior is crafted from silver gilt. Like a Slinky, the coiled form of the beakers allows them to seem to have stretched and re-formed themselves, thereby appearing to have defied gravity. There are silver marks and a maker's mark for Nan Nan Liu on the underside of the base.

Nan Nan Liu is a London-based silversmith who creates jewellery and objets d'art inspired by natural and organic forms, with a special focus on waves and movement, all captured in the solid material of silver.
