Primark is selling an almost identical version of Anthropologie's bestselling icon juice glasses for a fraction of the price.

I've been lusting after Anthropologies icon juice glasses for a few years now, so I was stunned to find a perfect alt at Primark, but for half the price.

Primark's embossed glass tumblers are almost identical to the style of Anthropologie's best selling icon juice glasses. The big difference? Anthro's version sells for £14, while you can pick up Primark's for a much more purse friendly £6.

I first came across Anthropologies version of the glasses a few years ago when my Mum picked up a couple in the sale with Christmas motifs for the Christmas dinner table. I have been trying not to stuff them in my bag every time I visit her ever since.

The handblown glasses are mini works of arts with playful motifs like tennis balls or bows picked out in hand pressed coloured glass beads on the side. Just last month, Anthropologie dropped five new designs including strawberries and pasta shapes.

Sadly, Primark doesn't have the same extensive range of 21 different designs, they have just the two at the moment, an adorable pineapple and crab. Two motifs, might I add, that are absent from the Anthropologie range.

It is the pineapple tumblers that first caught my eye, while they don't have the same handcrafted credentials as the icon juice glasses they are one of the best dupes I've seen. They have a weighty bottom and pretty coloured glass detailing, and are sold individually so you can mix and match motifs.

I'm planning to pick up a set of two of the Primark glasses, which will still cost me less than what I'd have spent on just one of the Anthropologie glasses.

The main downside is that the Primark glasses are only available to pick up in store. If you don't live near a Primark these are the next best alternatives I have found.

Do you prefer the bestselling Anthropologie version or the alternatives?
