Know before you buy
Yes, the Bristol Red Wine Glass is dishwasher safe. However, because it is handblown, we recommend hand washing to maintain the clarity and longevity of the glass over time.
This glass has an 11-ounce capacity, which is well-suited for a standard pour of red wine while allowing enough room for the wine to breathe.
No, these glasses are crafted from high-quality, lead-free glass. They offer the clarity and substantial feel of traditional crystal without the use of lead.
Yes, personalization is available for this item. Engraving is a great way to add a custom touch for weddings, anniversaries, or special housewarming gifts.
Because each piece is handblown using signature techniques, you may notice slight variations in the glass. These subtle differences are a hallmark of artisanal craftsmanship and make each glass unique.
