Product Description
Schott Zwiesel, the famed German producer of The Best Crystal Glassware has been a leader in innovation, design 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, 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 crystal: resists breakage, chipping and scratching; thermal shock resistant; clear and brilliant crystal, that refracts and transfers 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 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 to focus on delivering the wine or spirit to its maximum potential. The Fortissimo collection is elegant in design, featuring tall stems and soft tapered bowls yet fits all the basic wine needs. This set of 6 tritan crystal Fortissimo champagne flute glasses with 6 effervescence points provides a continuous stream of bubbles. Each glass has a 8.5 ounce capacity and measures 10.5” tall by 2.9” wide and is made in Germany. While dishwasher safe, the height of each glass may prevent it from being cleaned in a standard dishwasher. Suggested wine varietals include: Champagne, Asti, Cava, Presecco, Demi-sec.
