Know before you buy
No, this piece is primarily decorative and functional for serving. It does not feature specific aeration technology, so it is best suited for wines that are already ready to drink or for elegant table presentation.
This decanter is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the hand-blown crystal and the delicate gold thread, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and warm water, then drying immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.
No, this specific model does not include a stopper. Its design is focused on the classic, open-neck aesthetic of the Apollo collection.
The decanter has a capacity of 75 cl, or approximately 25.36 ounces, which is the standard volume for a full bottle of wine.
No, this item is not suitable for engraving. The intricate Venetian ribs and nic-nac cut details make the surface unsuitable for custom inscriptions.
The gold thread is a high-quality artisanal accent applied to the crystal. While it is durable for standard use, it should be handled with care and kept away from abrasive cleaning materials to ensure the finish remains vibrant over time.
