Lead crystal - Mouth blown - Hand made.

The origin of blown glassware dates back 2000 years. The Romans were the first to use this technique. At Riedel, in Kufstein, we exclusively produce hand-made glass. Each hand-made item is individually crafted by our master glassmakers. The expertise of these craftsmen guarantees that the quality of each glass meets the high standard for which our brand is known. Because of the hand-crafting, small tolerances in the size and weight of each glass, tiny bubbles (imperfections) and slight surface variations are a feature and an acceptable part of the process.
The introduction of the SOMMELIERS series in 1973 achieved worldwide recognition. A glass was born that turns a sip into a celebration - a wine’s best friend - fine-tuned to match the grape! We invite you to share this fascinating and unique experience. You don’t need to be a wine writer, a wine maker or an expert to taste the difference that a RIEDEL glass can make.
