Description
This pair of glass champagne flutes is printed for a 40th anniversary, each one carrying the words "40 wonderful YEARS together" in dark serif lettering on the clear bowl. A touch of shiny red picks out some of the letters, so the message reads clearly against the glass without crowding it. Each flute has the classic tall, narrow bowl on a slim stem and a round foot, and stands 22.2cm tall, a proper size for a generous pour of champagne, prosecco or any sparkling wine. The glass is clear with a shiny finish, so the bubbles stay on view as they rise.
We think they make a thoughtful 40th anniversary gift, ready for the moment the first toast is raised. They suit an anniversary dinner at home, a family party or a quiet toast for two, and because the message is printed on both flutes, neither glass is the spare. After the day, they become a keepsake that comes out again each year, or one that sits in a glass cabinet or on a dresser shelf where the printed words can still be read.
The words are printed on each bowl, with the red accent set among the dark lettering, while the stem and foot are left plain. To keep the print looking its best, we would wash the flutes gently by hand in warm soapy water and dry them with a soft cloth, taking care not to scrub over the lettering. Hold them by the stem when pouring and toasting, which keeps the champagne cool and the bowl free of fingerprints. For gifting, add a bottle of something sparkling and a card, and the present is ready to give on the morning of the anniversary.
