Castello Blu red wine glasses, set of 2. Light blue lead crystal bowls on clear stems, finished with a broad 24K gold band at the rim. 24% lead crystal, 350 ml. Hand wash only.
Pale coloured crystal with heavy gilding is a style associated with Central European glassworks, where stemware was made to stand out against a white cloth rather than disappear into it. Gold banding of this kind is fired on rather than surface painted, which is why gilded stemware should never go in a dishwasher. Made by Luxsor.
