Know before you buy
Yes, this piece is crafted from traditional high-quality crystal, which contains lead. Because of this, it is not lead-free.
This glass is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the clarity and vibrant ruby finish, we recommend hand-washing it gently with warm water and a mild detergent, then drying it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.
The 240 ml (8.1 oz) capacity is well-suited for standard pours of most red wines. Its design is intended to balance the aesthetic of the stem with the aeration needs of the wine.
No, this glass is not microwave safe. High-quality crystal should never be placed in a microwave, as the material can crack or shatter under heat.
As a 1st Edition item from the Fabergé Bristol collection by Ajka Crystal, this glass represents the initial production run of this specific design. This designation is significant for collectors looking for pieces with historical provenance within the brand's catalog.
