WHAT MAKES A PERFECT CRYSTAL GLASS?
Glass composition
The degree to which a glass can offer all of these benefits depends to a great extent on the type of glass used and the characteristics of the ingredients.
Standard Glass consist of sand, lime (an alkaline earth oxide), Sodium or Potassium oxides. Spiegelau Crystal glass has the same ingredients plus a certain percentage of metaloxide. These ingredients will be melted at approx. 1500°C and in later steps formed to the desired product.
Spiegelau glasses are all made of lead free Crystal glass. The highest quality of the Crystal ingredients make the Spiegelau products more durable, dishwasher safe, break resistant and also more brilliant than other glasses made with cheaper glass compositions.
Glass is a fascinating material. Not only does it fulfil a practical purpose but there are so many other ways in which glass enriches our life. It is brilliant, it reflects and refracts light and has a satisfying sound when glasses are clinked.
Still further, specific glass shapes and a high quality glass surface, through the use of pure raw materials, enhance the aromas and taste of beverages.

CARE AND USE
IMPORTANT HINTS FOR GLASS USE
Spiegelau stemware is being used in many famous restaurants and hotels and occasionally international wine tastings.
In order to guarantee maximum pleasure when tasting wine, it is important to consider the following professional hints, which we hope you will find of interest.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY „FUNCTIONAL“ GLASSES?
Spiegelau wine glasses are specially designed in collaboration with some of the world´s most respected sommeliers as well as owners of some of the world´s finest restaurants. In all aspects –shape, height, diameter of the bowl, etc. – Spiegelau glasses are crafted to deliver wine at its best for the greatest possible enjoyment. Each glass´s shape and size has been created with extreme attention to detail to fully enhance the character and bouquet of the wine.
FOR A PERFECT RESULT
water, detergent is not necessary
BEVERAGES AND GLASSES
Rules when handling connoisseur glasses:
1. Filling the glass
Fill the glass only to the widest diameter of its bowl. This will ensure maximum development of the wine´s bouquet, and also provide the most elegant table setting.
2. Holding the glass
The appropriately filled glass should always be held by the stem rather than the bowl, as heat from the hand could raise the wine‘s temperature above its optimum and negatively influence the bouquet of the wine.
3. Swirling the glass
Carefully swirling the glass allows oxygen into the wine by increasing its surface area and helps release the wine´s rich, mature aroma.
4. Why and how to decant wines
To decant wine means to transfer it from its bottle to a decanter or carafe before drinking. During storage or aging, wine can develop a solid deposit or sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Decanting is an easy means of separating the sediment from the wine. Decanting also helps the wine breathe, as the greater surface diameter of the decanter lets more oxygen
reach the wine than the bottle‘s does. Red wines should be decanted well before serving and allowed to rest at room temperature for up to one hour to allow the wine to fully develop its bouquet.
5. Wine temperature
Before decanting and/or serving wine, please store it at appropriate temperature (red wines at 59-63 degrees F, 15°-17° C, white wines at 50-54 degrees F, 10°-12° C). The proper serving temperature enhances the quality of the wine by allowing it to fully develop its characteristic aromas and flavors.
6. Washing the glass
Glasses should always be washed carefully, preferably by hand. Because of our Platinum Glass all Spiegelau glasses are 100% dishwasher safe, but they are best cared for by avoiding harsh detergents and choosing a cool, short dishwashing cycle. To avoid detergent residue, rinse glasses thoroughly in clean water. When drying the bowl of the glass, avoid holding the glass by its stem or base as this can, in extreme cases, cause the stem to break at its narrowest point.
1. Wash under warm
2. Place on linen to dry for the time being
5. Hold glass by base and polish
6. Use left hand to cradle the bowl and polish with your right hand
7. NEVER twist the base and bowl
8. Perfect result
3. For extra shine, steam over boiling water
4. To polish use 2 microfibre polishing cloths

4. INFORMATION ABOUT SILK SCREEN DECORATION:
In decorating glass with the screen printing process, colour is pressed through a silk screen to the glass surface and fixed to the glass during a temperature treatment. The colours, used by SPIEGELAU, are organic colours without heavy metals (such as lead, barium, etc.) or other toxic components. These colours have a high dishwasher resistance, but compared with ceramic colours a lower mechanical resistance.
5. ATTENTION:
The water hardness for cleaning glass, should not be less than 3° d.H.
Glasses with organic colours should be placed in the dishwasher in a way that they cannot make contact with each other during the washing process. If cleaning the glasses by hand, please do not use a scouring brush or abrasive detergents.
Be aware that fully desalinated water is extremely aggressive to both the glass surface and screen print decoration.
Over/underproduction (+10/-10 %) may be possible and will be billed accordingly.
*1: Excluding Series Definition!
Custom-made products such as silk screen printing and calibration marks only on request.
