Know before you buy
A magnum capacity typically refers to a volume of 1.5 liters, which is equivalent to two standard wine bottles. This makes it an ideal size for serving larger groups during dinner parties or events.
Due to the delicate nature of handmade glass, we recommend hand-washing this piece with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the high heat and abrasive detergents can damage the clarity and finish of the glass over time.
While the carafe is crafted with high-quality glass, it is a decorative and functional piece intended for elegant serving. It is best handled with care and stored safely when not in use to prevent chips or cracks.
Yes, the versatile design makes it suitable for serving water, iced tea, cocktails, or even fresh juices. Its elegant silhouette ensures it looks sophisticated regardless of the beverage inside.
Yes, because each piece is handmade, you may notice slight variations in the glass, such as tiny bubbles or subtle differences in shape. These characteristics are not defects but rather marks of authentic craftsmanship that make each carafe unique.
