Know before you buy
These flutes are not dishwasher safe. To preserve the clarity and integrity of the hand-cut crystal, we recommend hand-washing them gently with warm water and a mild detergent, followed by immediate drying with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Each flute has a volume of 9 cl, or approximately 3.04 ounces. This size is specifically designed to concentrate the aromas of champagne while maintaining the elegant proportions of the Apollo collection.
Yes, this piece is crafted from traditional fine crystal, which contains lead. This material is chosen for its superior refractive index, which gives the glass its signature brilliance and weight.
The nic-nac cut, combined with the Venetian ribs, creates a textured surface that catches the light and emphasizes the fluid, liquid nature of the crystal. Beyond the visual appeal, the tactile quality of the stem provides a secure and comfortable grip.
No, these flutes are not microwave safe. The thermal shock from microwave heating can damage the delicate, hand-blown crystal structure.
Unlike mass-produced glassware, these flutes are individually hand-blown and hand-cut, resulting in unique variations that reflect true artisanal craftsmanship. The design is inspired by the classic Thistle silhouette, offering a more historical and sophisticated aesthetic than modern, minimalist flutes.
