Know before you buy
While the jug is crafted from high-quality crystal, its 1.5L capacity means it will have a significant weight when full. Because it lacks a handle, you will need to grip the body of the vessel directly to pour.
Yes, the wide mouth is specifically designed for easy access, allowing you to comfortably add large ice cubes, lemon slices, or fresh herbs to your beverages.
No, this piece is not dishwasher safe. Due to the delicate nature of the hand-engraved marine motifs and the mouth-blown crystal, we recommend hand washing with mild soap to preserve the craftsmanship.
The jug is made from 100% lead-free crystal, which is durable but requires careful handling. While it is functional enough for regular use, it is best treated as a centerpiece or special-occasion piece to avoid accidental chips or scratches to the engravings.
