Product Description
Tritan Diva wine glasses are crystal-clear goblets and developed with a perfect shaped to enjoy Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc wine. Packaged as a set of 6, these wine glasses are far stronger than ordinary crystal, and technologically superior because theyare based on much rarer and more expensive titanium instead of lead. Dishwasher safe, they will not dull, cloud or break easily. Revolutionary in design, Tritan Diva wine glasses are very thin lead-free crystal that chimes when tapped, belying its super strength. Size: 8-9/10"H, 16-1/4 oz.

 Do not buy Schott's Glass!!!!! January 16, 2008
2 out of 5 found this review helpful
I am a serious wine collector and have owned several sets of crystal stemware over the last 25 years. I was drawn to the Schott Z. products because they are very attractive and I was interested in the break resistent advantage. br /br /I bought this set of 6 Pinot glasses and now 16 months later, there are just two left. These, however, faired better than the Bordeaux glasses; all 6 of them shattered. Not a single one ever hit the floor, nor did even one get toppled over. They (10 of my 12) met far gentler, but very premature, endsbr /br /My first two broke in my dishwasher - nothing ever broke in that ASKO dishwasher before. Well, at least they were together when they died - although that's not much consolation for the $30 I had invested in that pair. br /br /So, I thought that I had no option but to wash them by hand - just as I have always done with crystal stem ware. That claimed the next 8 glasses. By now I suspect that you might formulate a mental image of me as some ham-fisted spastic who was simply too rough with them. There has not been much over the years to suggest that it is so, but perhaps it could be argued. br /br /Also, I did not break all 8 though myself, my wife shattered a couple, our adult son, and a couple of friend all had the same experience. While rinsing them out with our bare hands under running water - they simply imploded. I am grateful that no one was hurt. Even after we were all aware that glasses had shattered in the hands of the individual who was washing them at the time, none the less, they kept shattering. Maybe one or two, but when everyone was aware and being especially cautious, they kept on breaking.br /br /I still have complete sets of R***el crystal stem ware from up to 25 years ago. Nome of them ever shattered in my hand. I even use my dishwasher to clean their "O" stemless wine glasses without a single casualty. The only ones that broke, did so by hitting the cruel floor or being back-handed and toppling over.br /br /Schott will be gone. They deserve to be. Do yourself a favor. Select some other stemware.
 Huge glasses!! December 25, 2007
I gave my husband a lot of little things for x-mas this year, and these glasses were the big hit. He love Pinot Noir, so these were perfect!!! They hold 24oz? They are bigger than most glasses I looked at. highly recommend for the price.
Be aware - but I love these glasses March 9, 2007

I love, love, love these glasses. I purchased them after lots of research including going out to the Schott Zwiesel website and viewing the 'break resistant' videos. br /br /About 1 week after my purchase, I took a terrible opportunity and accidentally knocked one glass off the counter and onto it's lip and onto my kitchen floor and into about 1 million tiny, tiny pieces. I nearly cried.br /br /So, lesson learned. Yep, they are break RESISTANT, but not unbreakable. They are still some of my favorite things.
Best wine glasses we have ever had January 9, 2007
Large but beautiful and delicate looking. Don't break easily. We have 2 sets, the first one being 2 years old, and have not broken one yet. Great glasses
