Care & instructions

Caring for your riedel crystal

• Riedel glasses are dishwasher safe. Riedel exclusively recommends miele
• To avoid stains: use soft water (low mineral content)
• To avoid scratches: avoid glass contact with other glass or metal
• To remove stains: use white vinegar
• If available use a stemware rack
• If washing by hand

Wash the glass under warm water (use detergent and rinse the glass carefully)

• Glass polishing: use two polishing cloths, never hold the glass by the base to polish the bowl
• Stem snap: occurs through mishandling = torque or bend pressure at the stem
• Storage: avoid glass storage in kitchen cabinets which have strong aromas that translates into glass

Microfiber polishing cloth

• Wash at boiling temperature (to kill bacteria) with odorless soap
• Should be machine washed at min. 170° f/75° c
• Never use fabric softener when rinsing your microfiber polishing cloth (avoids grease film on surface)

About Brand

Riedel crystal is a 300 year-old family owned company known for its creation and development of varietal-specific stemware. Riedel crystal is the first in history to recognize that the taste of a beverage is affected by the shape of the vessel from which it is consumed, and has been recognized for its revolutionary designs complementing alcoholic beverages and other drinks.

In 2013 the company began a new era of innovation, applying its knowledge of form and function to nonalcoholic beverages. Accepting the invitation of the Coca-Cola company, and with the support of its Atlanta based flavor experts, riedel applied its taste-tested blueprint to create a finely-tuned, specific shape to enhance the enjoyment of the world's most iconic beverage, classic Coca-Cola. Concurrently, riedel began its first introduction into hot beverages, utilizing the expertise of nespresso's coffee authorities in Lausanne, Switzerland to develop two machine-blown shapes for espresso, which amplify the distinct flavors of the coffee leader's popular coffee blends.
