Crystal Bar Glasses

Crystal Bar Glasses

Father’s Day is quickly approaching and I know that the Orrefors Crystal Bar Glasses that I received to review will make a perfect gift for my husband.  My husband, Scott, works hard to provide for our family.  He works 9a-5p all week, even doing the evenings routine with the kids solo a few times a week while I work long shifts at the hospital as a nurse.  At the end of the day, Scott enjoys sitting down with a nice scotch or whiskey drink to unwind.  He is always complaining that we don’t have appropriate bar glasses to drink from.  The Street collection from Orrefors Fine Crystal will make a perfect Father’s Day gift and a great addition to our bar!

Fine Crystal Glassware

Orrefors is known world wide for its fine crystal glassware.  I was familiar with Orrefors for their reputation for high quality crystal.  I was sent a set of Double Old Fashion glasses as well as a set of Tumblers from the Street Collection.  The Double Old Fashioned glasses are perfect for my husband’s evening cocktail.  They are approximately 3 1/2 in tall and 3 3/8 in wide and are the ideal size my husband favorite whiskey drink.  The Tumblers are approximately 5 7/8 in tall and 3 in wide.  They are perfect for a nice tall glass of ice water or for a mixed drink.  I love the style of the Street collection.  The glasses have a hand cut grid pattern made to resemble the street network of New York.  There is a very masculine feel to the Street collection which I know my husband will love!  Both the Double Old Fashioned and the Tumblers in the Street collection are made from fine crystal.  They are extremely easy to hand wash and feel solid and durable.  These will not only make a great gift for Father’s Day this year but also for the many upcoming weddings and birthdays I have!  I know that I will be able to enjoy these glasses for a long time because of their classic style and durability.  Both the Double Old Fashioned and the Tumblers barware glasses retail for $80.00 through Orrefors.

Orrefors Fine Crystal not only creates beautiful barware but also stemware, candleholders, dishes, vases and bowls, just to name a few.  Orrefors is part of the Father’s Day Event from June 10th to June 18th.  Make sure you like them on Facebook, Twitter and check out their website to win a $100 gift certificate to Orrefors as part of the final package!
