Product Review

Schott Zwiesel, the famed German producer of The Best Crystal Glassware has been a leader in innovation, style and technology for more than 100 years. The company has many firsts to its credit, including the first fully automated product of glass blown glass stemware. In the 1990's, as the glass industry struggled with the environmental issues of lead and other heavy metals in crystal, the company was the first glassmaker to produce lead-free crystal glass of superb quality and brilliance. Schott Zwiesel created Tritan® Crystal in 2001 by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide to develop "The World's Best Crystal Glass". Tritan® Crystal is 100% dishwasher safe-it will not etch, cloud or discolor for the life of the glass. Tritan® resists the damages of daily use-breakage, chipping and scratching. Tritan® is thermal shock resistant. Tritan® is one of the most clear and brilliant crystal, capable of conducting, refracting and transferring light more than any other crystal. Tritan® tempers the rim, the bowl and stem joint and the foot edge for added strength against chipping and breakage. All crystal items manufactured by Schott Zwiesel are cut with our patented laser technology for a smooth thin, elegant edge. All stemware products are seamless after manufacturing; no unsightly seams remain between the bowl and stem, on the stem , or under the foot of the glass. Each detail of size, weight and balance is carefully studied by experts in the culinary field and our manufacturing engineers and executes to produce a glass for the maximum pleasure with focus on delivering the wine or spirit to its maximum potential. The Mondial collection is our most basic line. It is designed for daily use with thicker stems and sturdier styling for durability. The Mondial collection's smaller size allows each piece to fits in all dishwashers. This set of 6 tritan crystal Mondial brandy snifter glasses is best utilized with brandy or cognac. Dishwasher safe.
