Looking around for another everyday item that doesn't cost much and makes a difference we were tipped off to the Lisbon Wine Glasses ($12) from Crate & Barrel by our friend, Charles. Looking almost identical to Simon Pearce's Essex Stemware, which sell for $60 each, the Lisbon is hard to break or chip, comfortable in the hand, and elegant to look at. Want wine glasses that will last and look good forever? This is it. MGR










What a perfectly dreadful wineglass! I can't imagine drinking anything besides $2 Chuck out of those.
great blog, btw. I've been reading for over 2 months. To elaborate on my criticism, wineglasses should have some taper at the top. It's very difficult to smell anything at all from a straight-sided or flared glass.
