Schott Zwiesel Tritan Crystal Glass Convention Barware Old Fashioned/Whiskey Cocktail Glass Set

Schott Zwiesel, the renowned German producer of the finest crystal glassware, has been a leader in innovation, style, and technology for over a century. The company boasts numerous groundbreaking achievements, including the first fully automated production of glass-blown stemware. In the 1990s, as the glass industry grappled with environmental concerns over lead and other heavy metals in crystal, Schott Zwiesel emerged as the first glassmaker to produce lead-free crystal glass of exceptional quality and brilliance.

In 2001, the company introduced Tritan crystal, a remarkable innovation created by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide. Tritan crystal is 100% dishwasher safe, ensuring it will not etch, cloud, or discolor over the lifetime of the glass. This durable material is also resistant to the common damages of daily use, such as breakage, chipping, and scratching. Furthermore, Tritan is thermal shock resistant, making it a highly versatile choice.

Tritan crystal is renowned for its unparalleled clarity and brilliance, with an unsurpassed ability to conduct, refract, and transfer light. As an added measure of protection, Tritan tempers the rim, bowl, stem joint, and foot edge, providing enhanced strength against chipping and breakage. All crystal items manufactured by Schott Zwiesel, whether stemware or beverage ware, are cut using their patented laser technology, resulting in a smooth, thin, and elegant edge.

Each detail of size, weight, and balance is meticulously studied by culinary experts and manufacturing engineers to ensure the glass delivers the wine or spirit to its maximum potential. Design for function, quality, fashion, and pleasure are integral to all Tritan crystal products.

The Convention barware collection from Schott Zwiesel features a distinctive design, with a heavy and rounded bottom glass styling offset by tall, straight sides. This set of 6 Tritan crystal Convention old fashioned/whiskey glasses is versatile, suitable for use as a double old fashioned or a juice glass. Dishwasher safe and made in Germany, these glasses embody the brand's commitment to excellence and innovation.
