Know before you buy
Each glass features a high-quality crystal bowl paired with a base crafted from lead-free pewter, which is an alloy of tin, copper, and antimony. This combination provides both the clarity needed for appreciating spirits and the substantial weight characteristic of fine pewter.
The small glass stands 4.3 inches tall with an 8-ounce capacity, making it ideal for a standard pour. The large glass measures 5.5 inches in height and holds 20 ounces, providing more room for the spirit to breathe.
Yes, the pewter used by Match Pewter is FDA-approved and lead-free, ensuring it is completely food-safe for serving spirits.
These glasses should be hand-washed only to preserve the finish of the pewter and the integrity of the crystal. They are not microwave safe, and while the pewter is slow to tarnish, gentle hand-washing will keep them looking their best for years.
Yes, personalized engraving is available for these glasses, making them an excellent option for gifts or a custom addition to your home bar.
