Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these glasses dishwasher safe?

No, these glasses are designed for handwashing only. Dishwashers can cause cloudiness, chipping, or breakage due to high heat and harsh detergents.

What type of red wine is best suited for these glasses?

The narrow tulip-style bowl is ideal for young red wines, as it concentrates their delicate aromas. This includes wines like Pinot Noir, Beaujolais, and lighter-bodied Merlots or Syrahs.

Is the red colour permanent?

Yes, the red colour is inherent to the crystal material during the manufacturing process.

How should I store these glasses?

Store them upright on a stable surface, ensuring they have adequate space to prevent them from knocking against each other. Avoid storing them in crowded cabinets.

What is the advantage of lead-free crystal?

Lead-free crystal offers excellent clarity and brilliance while being safer and more environmentally friendly than traditional lead crystal. It is also generally lighter.

Can I use these for white wine?

While designed for red wine, you can use them for white wine. However, a glass with a more open bowl might be preferred for certain aromatic white wines.

What does 'one-piece pulled stem' mean?

It means the stem and the bowl of the glass are formed from a single piece of molten glass, creating a seamless, stronger, and more elegant structure compared to glasses where the stem is attached separately.

Troubleshooting

Glasses have water spots after washing.

Ensure glasses are dried immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth after handwashing. Consider using a rinse aid in your washing water, or distilled water if your tap water is particularly hard.

Glass appears cloudy or dull.

Cloudiness can be due to mineral deposits from hard water or residue from harsh detergents. Try washing again with a mild detergent and distilled water, and dry thoroughly. Avoid using dishwashers as the heat and harsh detergents can damage the crystal.

Stem feels loose or wobbly.

These glasses are constructed with a one-piece pulled stem for durability. If a stem feels loose, it may indicate a manufacturing defect. Handle with care and contact the retailer if the issue persists immediately after purchase.
