Know before you buy
No, this glass is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the clarity of the crystal and the integrity of the blue drop detail, we recommend hand-washing it gently with mild soap and warm water.
The glass stands 3.5 inches tall with a 3.2-inch diameter, making it perfectly sized for a standard Old Fashioned cocktail or a neat pour of your favorite spirit.
The signature blue drop is an integral part of the mouth-blown crystal design, not a surface application. It is crafted into the stem area of the glass using traditional Swedish glassmaking techniques.
The glass weighs approximately 3.22 ounces. It offers a balanced, substantial feel that reflects the quality of genuine Swedish crystal without being overly heavy or cumbersome.
No, this glass is designed as a single-wall tumbler for spirits and cold cocktails. It is not intended for use with hot liquids or in the microwave.
