Description: A beautiful set of the ever popular Rhine Wine Glasses by Cristal d'Arques! I often see these little wine glasses confused with the bigger Hock Wine Glasses. These crystal beauties are indeed meant for drinking Rhine wine, a white wine. The small bowl and long stem is meant to keep the wine chilled, and it's said the green colored stem enhances the wine's color.Maker: Cristal d'Arques-Durand, marked ARC and FRANCE on the bottoms. Arc is the parent company of Cristal d'Arques. Often you will see these glasses attributed to Luminarc, also an Arc brand.Pattern: EmeraldProduction Time Period: 1996 to 2008Glass Shape: Rhine Wine GlassDimensions: 6.5" tall and 2.5" diameter. Holds 4 oz.In very good vintage condition. No chips or cracks. I will note that one glass has a minor flea bite on the outer edge of the rim - it is not sharp; please see the last photo. Set is priced to reflect this flaw.How to Care For: Hand wash in lukewarm water with mild detergent. Rinse in same temperature water and hand dry. Do not place in dishwasher.Please let your glasses come to room temperature after enjoying a chilled drink before washing! Vintage glassware is extremely temperature sensitive and going from cold to warm can "shock" the glass causing it to shatter.
