NOMOS Glashuette Tetra Erzgebirgsperle - Crantastic!

This is the Tetra Erzgebirgsperle from NOMOS Glashuette.  Or to us in the non-German speaking world - the Tetra Cranberry!  My Grandmother spent a lifetime working for Ocean Spray, so I still find myself waking up some mornings "craving the wave"!  For those of you who didn't grow up with US television that is a reference to wanting a cold glass of cranberry juice ; )
