Know before you buy
The rich purple hue is integrated into the crystal itself, ensuring the color remains vibrant and consistent throughout the glass.
No, these crystal tumblers are not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing them gently with warm, soapy water to preserve the clarity and finish of the crystal.
At 290 grams, this glass has a substantial, weighted feel that is heavier than most standard glassware. This provides a premium, stable experience when holding your drink.
Yes, the 370 ml capacity is generous enough to comfortably hold a standard Old Fashioned, including a large ice cube or sphere, without being overcrowded.
While they are durable enough for regular home entertaining, their fine crystal construction requires careful handling. They are best suited for special occasions or evening cocktails rather than casual, high-traffic daily use.
