Dartington Crystal Tumbler - White

24% lead crystal contains a significant amount of lead oxide, which refracts light exceptionally well, giving it superior brilliance, clarity, and a warmer tone compared to ordinary glass. It also provides a heavier, more luxurious feel.

Yes, when used as intended for serving beverages, 24% lead crystal is safe. The lead content is molecularly bonded within the glass and does not leach into beverages served at room temperature for short periods.

To restore shine, gently wash the glass with warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. For dullness, a weak vinegar-water solution rinse followed by proper drying can help.

Yes, the tumbler is designed to hold ice. Be mindful when adding ice to avoid chipping the glass. Using larger, smoother ice cubes can also reduce the risk of scratches.

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the point of purchase. Please refer to your sales receipt or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.

Store your crystal tumbler carefully to prevent damage. It's best to store them upright on a soft surface or with protective material between glasses if stacking to avoid chips and scratches.

This is often due to minerals in tap water. Ensure you are drying the glass thoroughly with a lint-free cloth immediately after rinsing. For stubborn spots, try soaking briefly in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water, then rinse and dry.

Over time, light scratches can occur from normal use. While they cannot be fully removed without professional polishing, gentle cleaning with a non-abrasive glass polish might help minimize their appearance. Always use soft cloths for cleaning and drying.

While handcrafted, slight variations in weight can occur. However, if it feels significantly lighter than anticipated for 24% lead crystal, re-verify the product markings or consult the retailer.
