I, strangley enough, just bought 2 of them in N'djamena, Chad. I got them from a Chinese resturant and they said they are indeed hard to come by. The owner told me she bought them in Paris. So I did a little research and I found a website you might be interested in. http://www.amres.com/catalogs/COOR.asp
If you've found anything cheaper please let me know. Good luck.

: I have found similar glasses at shops that sell "oriental" gifts. The most common "disappearing" image is called "lithophane" and the image appears when held up to the light -- I'm not sure if liquid makes it appear or not...

: : I was recently on holiday and at the end of a very enjoyable Chinese meal was given a shot glass that had a picture at the bottom. When the shot was consumed the picture had disappeared!. I would love to find some of these. Has anyone got any ideas where I could possibly find some of these for sale
