Orrefors Geometry Wine Glass

Yes, these glasses are crafted from traditional lead crystal. This material is chosen for its superior clarity and ability to be blown into the thin, elegant shapes characteristic of the Geometry collection.

To maintain the brilliance and integrity of the crystal, we recommend hand-washing these glasses with mild detergent and warm water. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the heat and harsh detergents can cause clouding or damage to the delicate, thin-walled construction.

While specifically designed for white wine, the 17.5 oz capacity is quite versatile. The generous bowl size allows for proper aeration, making them an excellent choice for lighter-bodied red wines as well.

While the glasses are crafted with a thin, light profile for an elegant aesthetic, they are designed to be break-resistant. However, because they are mouth-blown crystal, they require careful handling compared to standard everyday glassware.

Designed by the architectural firm Claesson Koivisto Rune, the glasses draw inspiration from fundamental shapes like spheres, cylinders, and cones. This approach creates a modern, sculptural silhouette that balances artistic form with the functional requirements of wine tasting.
