Spode Christmas Tree 16-Ounce Pedestal Goblets with Gold Rims, Set of 4
A holiday favorite since its introduction in 1938, Spode's Christmas Tree pattern is their most well known and widely collected holiday pattern. Evoking the holidays with a traditional evergreen, the pattern creates a warm, folksy Christmas feel that families will look forward to year after year and hold dearly in their memories for generations. The trademark tree, seemingly decorated by young hands and ringed with brightly wrapped presents underneath, stands cheerily in the center of every piece. Charming, crafty decorations encircle the tree and Santa himself--bag slung over his shoulder--stands at the top. For collecting fun, Spode adds new accessories to the pattern every year, allowing a cherished holiday tradition to grow with time. Match any piece to other items in the collection for seasonal dining merriment.Pour and serve large-sized glasses of wine or water into these luxurious and enlivening wine glasses for a wonderful holiday treat. The set includes four glasses; each glass is made of clear glass, holds 16 ounces, stands 7 inches high, and has a generous 3-1/4-inch diameter for smelling the wine's bouquet. The reservoir of each glass is deeper than a standard wine glass, allowing for the extra capacity, and the standard narrow stem is replaced with a shorter stem featuring a globe-shape ball just above the base. Like all items in the pattern, the glass features the calling-card Christmas tree design at center; other decorative elements include mistletoe and 22-karat gold trim at the top, making each sip a memorable delight. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the gold trim, and the glass should not be used in a microwave. Match with all items in the pattern, especially the standard wine goblets.--Jeff Dalto
