The Duralex Gigogne 220ml Glass Tumblers are designed for households and commercial environments that prioritize longevity, safety, and minimalist aesthetics. These glasses offer the significant benefit of being over twice as strong as standard glassware thanks to a specialized tempering process, making them exceptionally resistant to thermal and mechanical shocks. While they are incredibly durable, users should note that as tempered glass, they do not offer the clarity of fine crystal, focusing instead on heavy-duty, everyday practicality.

Yes, because they are tempered to resist thermal shock, they can handle hot beverages, though they are not intended for boiling liquids.
Yes, they are safe to use in the freezer, but avoid sudden, extreme shifts in temperature immediately after removal.
Yes, Duralex glassware is manufactured without lead or other harmful additives.
Unlike traditional glass that breaks into large, sharp shards, Duralex tempered glass shatters into smaller, duller pieces, significantly reducing the risk of injury.
Yes, these tumblers are microwave safe, making them convenient for warming beverages.
Duralex products are manufactured in France using their signature 70-year-old tempering process.
Do not force them apart. Run the outer glass under warm water to allow for slight thermal expansion, then gently twist and pull.
Ensure your dishwasher rinse aid reservoir is full and check that the water hardness levels in your area are managed.
These glasses require no special setup upon unboxing; simply wash them with mild detergent before the first use. They are fully dishwasher safe and can handle frequent cycles without clouding. While the glasses are microwave-safe, avoid subjecting them to extreme temperature jumps (such as taking a glass directly from the freezer to a boiling liquid). To maintain their longevity, avoid using abrasive scouring pads or metal scrapers that could cause surface scratches. If a glass becomes chipped or cracked, it is best to retire it from service, even if it remains in one piece.
