Crystal Wine Glasses & Unique Hand Painted Wine Glasses |
Wine glasses are types of glassware, stemware which are of course used to drink and taste wine. Selection of a particular wine glass is important, as the glass shape can influence its perception.
Wine Glass Make & Proper Use
Wine glasses made from hand blown, mouth blown glass results in a better vessel, with a thinner lip, and are usually acceptable for casual wine drinkers. High quality wine glasses are made of crystal, which is porous and helps to aerate the wine. Crystal Wine Glasses also produce a better ringing sound when toasting.
This exquisite collection of Unique Wine Glasses specialize in mouth blown, hand decorated and Hand Painted Wine Glasses with intricate detailing. These wine glasses are also made from lead free crystal and are imported from Romania.

Shapes of Wine Glasses
The shape of Wine Glasses are also very important, as it concentrates the flavor and aroma (or bouquet). The shape of the Wine Glass also directs the wine itself into the best area of the mouth. . In general the opening of the Wine Glass is not wider than the widest part of the bowl.
The stem of a Wine Glass is an important feature as it provides a way to hold the glass without warming the wine from body heat. It also prevents fingerprints from smearing the Wine Glass, and makes the glass easier to swirl.
Wine Glasses can be divided into three types: red wine glasses, white wine glasses and champagne flutes. Most of our Unique Wine Glasses are individually hand painted glasses featuring a classic grape etched design with 24k gold accents.
Red Wine Glasses
Glasses for red wine are characterized by their rounder, wider bowl, which gives the wine a chance to breathe. Since most reds are meant to be consumed at room temperature, the wider bowl also allows the wine to cool more quickly after hand contact has warmed it. Some of our Hand Painted Wine Glasses feature a cobalt blue lined swirl design simulating a “stain glass” like finish.
White Wine Glasses
White wine glasses are generally narrower, although not as narrow as champagne flutes, with somewhat straight or tulip-shaped sides. The narrowness of the white wine glass allows the chilled wine to retain its temperature. We also offer wine glasses of clean and crystal clear, not colored but colorless crystal. Most of these Unique Wine Glasses are etched and engraved with fine parallel lines, squares and rectangles edged in between.
Champagne Flutes
Champagne flutes are characterized by a long stem with a tall, narrow bowl on top. The champagne glass is designed to be held by the stem to help prevent the heat from the hand from warming the champagne. The bowl itself is designed in a manner to help retain the signature carbonation in the beverage. This is achieved by reducing the surface area at the opening of the bowl. Champagne flutes are often used at formal engagements, such as award ceremonies and weddings.
Wouldn't it be fitting for your special occasion to be celebrated with unique champagne wine glasses, individually produce and hand painted separately, making that special moment as personal and precious as can be!
