A post-prandial sampling of sherry or shot of top-shelf tequila sips decadently from the Tilt Cordial glass. While this perfect, palm-fitting gem appears to lean precariously, don't be fooled. The full-lead crystal glass is actually quite stable, thanks to the counterweight provided by its solid, heavy base. Bring out the four glasses in this set and the Tilt Decanter filled with your favorite spirit, and watch your guests instantly relax. Though playful, Tilt barware is quite elegant and deeply brilliant, mouth-blown and hand-cut in the traditional way by the finest European glassblowers.
- A set of four 3-ounce glasses
- Match with other Tilt barware

About Nambé Crystal
In 1998, we introduced the collection of Nambé full-lead crystal. Each piece is mouth blown and hand cut in the traditional way by the finest glassblowers. Nambé Crystal is safe to use with food and beverages, but should never be subjected to sudden temperature changes. Nambé Crystal requires delicate handling. After use, hand wash items in warm water with a mild detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. Dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent spotting.
Care
- Window-cleaning liquid or rubbing alcohol may be used to clean Nambé Crystal
- Do not subject Nambé Crystal to hot water or to abrasive detergents
- Protect crystal from sudden changes in temperature, which may cause pieces to break
- Displaying in sunny windows for extended periods is not recommended
- If a chip is discovered, take your piece to a local crystal shop or crystal engraver for sanding
- For vases: Avoid mineral stains by using distilled water for flower arrangements and change water frequently; remove stains and mineral deposits with a bottle brush using a mixture of one half vinegar and one half water
- For decanters and vases: To remove stains, remove residue using a handful of uncooked rice in a solution of lemon juice or vinegar and warm water; for tougher stains, allow pieces to soak in warm water with a denture cleaning tablet
- For candleholders: Candles must not burn within 1 inch of the crystal, as this may result in damage to the candleholder
- For champagne flutes: It is best to empty champagne from your flutes and wash and dry them soon after serving; leaving your champagne flutes unwashed overnight will result in discoloration
Lead levels in the crystal glasses sold by Nambé comply with FDA standards.
Nambé
Nambé possesses a certain mystique. Partly it's our very name and our
connections to the landscape, culture and history of our origins. Nambé
(pronounced na:m'bei) was christened for a tiny village near Santa Fe in
Northern New Mexico where the company was founded in 1951.
But there's more to it, this mystique, which makes Nambé the "lifestyle" brand
valued by people who love simple, elegant designs and love to share them with
others.
The most distinguishing characteristic of Nambé is that our company is devoted
as passionately to form as it is to function. Many early Nambé designs
(Tri-Corner and Butterfly bowls, for instance) still sell briskly. This
dedication to design defines Nambé. Timeless art you can use every day.
Early on, discerning buyers and customers of prestigious stores like
Neiman-Marcus, Saks 5th Avenue, Bloomingdale's and Gump's discovered Nambé.
Museums added Nambé to their collections and exhibits. For its beauty, quality
and heirloom value, Nambé became a favorite gift, especially for brides. The
collection grew and became a world brand.
In 1998, we introduced the collection of Nambé full-lead crystal, in 2001, Nambé
lighting, and in 2003, Nambé porcelain. Additional collections and other
exciting news about Nambé are imminent. Sign up for our email newsletters and
we'll keep you posted.
