Examples of Champagne Glasses

There likely has been as much variation in Champagne glasses as in any type of glasses. I have 5 examples to show you. First view

. These 3 glasses are all by Baccarat. The classic saucer on the left likely has been around over

100 years, especially in English speaking country. This example is from the Brummel pattern, likely some of the most thin crystal ever made. It can be felt to flex if you very lightly squeeze it. It must be very carefully washed by hand. The middle glass is a tulip shape that was very popular in the 60s and is my favorite. The "V" flute on the right is a quite old style, but it still was being produced in the 60s.

Now look at

. Both of these glasses come from the Venice area. The one with the octagon cross section and much gold is an antique. The wild one on the right is fairly recent.

These 5 samples barely scratch the surface of style variations in Champange glasses.
