Product Description
Luigi Bormioli Crescendo 13-Ounce Chardonnay Wine Glasses, Set of 4: Kitchen & Dining. The Crescendo collection offers a variety of drinkware sets to complement this set. Serve a Chilean Sauvignon Blanc with undertones of passion fruit and lemon or a full-bodied, creamy Chardonnay with the 13-ounce Chardonnay glasses in this four-glass set from Luigi Bormioli’s Crescendo line of stemware. In music, the word “Crescendo” indicates the gradual increase of volume up to the movement’s apex; the Crescendo stemware follows a similar trajectory as it rises above comparable stemware with increased brilliance and strength. Made at Luigi Bormioli’s headquarters in Parma, Italy, the Chardonnay glass set features a more discrete variation of the typical tulip-shaped bowl as it narrows at a slow, even pace to a thin rim around the wider mouth.The Crescendo Chardonnay set exemplifies the time-honored Parma practices of classic hand glassblowing techniques applied to the purest sands and natural materials available. However, Luigi Bormioli blends tradition with modern innovation in the Crescendo glassware’s construction in the company’s innovative 2007 development, the lead-free, crystalline SON.Hyx glass. SON.Hyx glass’s clarity in both sonority and transparency rivals fine crystal and even surpasses the old standard with technical advancements in chip and crack resilience, from each glass’s foot, up along its stem and bowl, and on around its rim. Dishwasher-safe, the Crescendo stemware resists stains and spots to uphold the glass’s luminousness for over 400 wash cycles. A 25-year guarantee covers the set in the event of any such discoloration, in addition to any chips to the glasses’ rims and feet incurred during normal use. Each Chardonnay glass stands 9 inches high with a 6-1/2-inch circumference.
