EDITORS NOTES Choosing the perfect glasswareGlass comes in a range of weights, cuts and clarity and we have a wide selection for you to choose from, designed to suit every budget and occasion.
Soda lime | Versatile and available in many colours and styles, soda lime glass is perfect for everyday use.

Lead crystal | With a beautiful clarity, weight and resonance, lead crystal is a quality choice. To be called 'Lead', the glass has at least 24% Lead Oxide in its composition.
