Spruce Up Your Kitchen with Waterford Drinkware

How can you transform drinkware into a statement of elegance and luxury? By adding Waterford Crystal drinkware pieces to your kitchen, of course! Known for centuries as one of the finest names in dinnerware, Waterford has been a sought after name for generations, and now you can own a piece of this tradition with your own collection of Waterford Drinkware.

Waterford was actually founded in 1783 by two brothers in the ancient Viking city of Waterford. The company began with the same standard that now makes it famous. That is, and has always been, to produce handcrafted crystal unrivaled by any other craftsmen using the most elegant of designs.

The founding pair worked tirelessly to create a secret formula that combined the perfect balance of minerals to produce an unparalleled finished product. All one needs to do is to tap gently on a piece of Waterford crystal to hear the unmistakable song, or hold a Waterford glass to enjoy the soft curves and signature warmth of these pieces. It’s no surprise that even now, over three-hundred years since its founding, Waterford is the world’s top maker of handcrafted crystal and the Waterford name remains synonymous with luxury and craftsmanship.

It doesn’t take a special occasion to enjoy the luxury of Waterford. The Crystal “Waterville” ten ounce beverage goblets pair is perfectly sized for juice, water or freshly made lemon aid. Produced in Ireland, each glass weighs a substantial four pounds and measures eight inches high. The Waterville pattern is inspired by County Kerry, Ireland where water surrounds the town, much like the carved line patterns flow around these glasses.

Although most Waterford Crystal should not be used for extra-cold beverages, the Waterford Ballet “Presage” Iced Beverage Glasses are designed to handle chilly drinks. Sold in a set of four, this collection is designed to be as graceful as a dancer’s pirouettes. Symmetrical cuts combine with blossoming edges to offer an inviting look that beckons to be admired.

When it comes time to sit down to dinner, the John Rocha by Waterford Crystal “Weft” carafe and wine glass set is the perfect companion. This set makes serving wine into an art form, with a clean design, sleek lines and elegant curves. These are beautiful additions to any dinner table, but did you know that this crystal can actually improve the taste and quality of your wine? It’s true! In fact, aerating wine in a carafe can improve the aromatic compounds and blend out tannins. And with this simple design, the set will blend in perfectly with whichever table setting you choose.

Waterford Crystal’s “Lismore” two ounce cordial glasses are an elegant way to finish off a fine meal. This set of four features the classic Lismore pattern, Waterford’s most famous design. These six and a half inch high glasses are two pounds in weight each. Filled with fine liquor or even a light sorbet, these cordial glasses will end any dinner on a high note.

And for the special occasions of the holiday season, wow your guests with the Waterford Crystal Collector’s 12 Days of Christmas Flutes. This collection inspired by the traditional song, celebrates the fabled days of Christmas by focusing on the first six days of the story. Perfect for those celebratory toasts, this collection comes with six champagne flutes, great for accommodating guests. Each flute features a visual representation of one of the first six days, and comes with six matching charms and a storage chest that can hold a dozen flutes. One flute for instance portrays the fabled “partridge in a pear tree” and features an etched image of this scene. Each flute also includes a different crystal pattern, with “two turtle doves” displaying the diamond cut “Alana” pattern and “five golden rings” displaying the “Maureen” design.

Whichever style you choose to upgrade your kitchen’s style, just make sure you care for your Waterford properly. Fine crystal should always be washed by hand individually, using warm soapy water. After each glass is washed it’s recommended that it be carefully dried with a lint-free cloth and stored right side up. Avoid using the dishwasher because it can dull the crystal’s surface. Also, reserve your glasses for room temperature drinks as temperature extremes can degrade the strength of the crystal, and even cause cracks and breakage.

Waterford is a name that has always stood for excellence. With this fine variety of drinkware, you too can own a piece of the tradition. Nothing can compare to the look, feel and even sound of these fine crystal glasses, nor can anything compete with the experience of enjoying your own personal collection in at home.
