Know before you buy
These glasses are not dishwasher safe. To preserve the gold trim and the integrity of the crystal, hand wash them gently using mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth.
Yes, the wide-bowl design is traditionally intended for sherbet or champagne, but it also works beautifully for serving small desserts, fruit cups, or chilled appetizers.
No, this vintage collection is not lead-free. Because they were manufactured prior to 1974, they contain lead crystal, which is common for glassware of that era.
Each piece measures 5 3/8 inches in height. This shorter stature makes them a stable and elegant choice for table settings compared to taller, modern champagne flutes.
As with many vintage pieces, the gold trim can wear over time if exposed to harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbing. Hand washing is essential to maintain the luster of the gold accents.
