    I wasn't sure where to post this thread, so mods, feel free to move it if there is a better forum.

    I'm looking to get my hands on a Boulevard Smokestack Chalice like the one pictured. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this particular picture is very good at illustrating exactly why I'm looking for said glass:

    What the picture doesn't tell you is the fact that this pair of chalices had very special meaning to my wife and I, having received them from a local beer-centric restaurant when we had our rehearsal dinner there before getting married a little over four years ago.

    The funny (tragic) part is that I didn't break this glass during use. Rather, I was putting some of my other glassware away--on an upper shelf, so that the regular glasses and baby bottles are easier to reach for my wife--and one of them slipped out of my hands, bringing death and destruction down upon the unsuspecting chalice below. I didn't just break--it exploded. The remnant you see above was not only the largest piece, but the only piece that was large enough to recognize the original glass.

    As I'm sure many of you know, this particular glass is no longer in production, and not even the fine folks at Boulevard could tell me where I might be able to find another one. This is my hail mary attempt to find a kind BA who either has an extra to part with, or who has no specific attachment to their own glass. I'm more than happy to work something out, be it Paypal, beer in trade, etc.

    Thanks for listening to my sob story, and extra thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to help me out.
