Seconded on the orchid!
As for the glass -- personally, I'd crop out the glass and keep the top background.
With an eye towards the glass-maker as a client, I'd want to see a brighter product and fewer distractions in the background -- not the round highlights, but probably just a lower PoV, maybe a smaller stack of napkins, move that chair (or whatever the high upright light shape is) and lose the green glass (or at least move it a lot closer so that it's less in focus).
I'm not crazy about the vertical dark lines either, especially the way they interrupt the background OoF highlights.
But hey, I'm picky! And yeah, "put up or shut up"...
