Wedding Champagne and Champagne Flutes

Champagne Flutes

Modern champagne flutes are available in many different price ranges, from the expensive high quality crystal champagne flutes for the champagne enthusiast to the more basic and affordable standard champagne flutes for the everyday drinker, and it is also a fact that there are collectors of vintage glassware and champagne flutes.

It is natural that glass gets broken, and this is one reason why vintage champagne flutes fetch very high prices at auction; another is that they are very attractive designs indeed. Many display their collections in specialist display cabinets designed specifically for the presentation of glassware.

Looking at champagne flutes is like analysing curves as they naturally occur; the lines are almost perfect in their display and function and they present a very elegant and beautiful object. The shape of the glass – tall and thin – also prevents the ability to ‘glug’ at champagne, as champagne flutes are meant to be elegantly sipped at!

Engraved champagne flutes make attractive presents – for a 21st birthday, a wedding or any other special occasion – and can be had from many fine makers, and a set of champagne flutes is essential in any household where the dinner party is part and parcel of the social whirl.

Tall and elegant, functional and beautiful, champagne flutes reflect a world of high class drinking and ceremony that has its roots in the annals of history.

Champagne flutes are designed to help keep the drink fizzy and lively, by having a narrow opening that does not encourage the escape of gases; this is one school of thought that, in truth, has no basis in scientific fact, yet may have been the original reason for introducing the champagne flute as the standard way of serving the drink. It is a nice story, however, and one that adds gravitas to the development of the champagne flute.

If you are looking for a good wedding present I’d definitely go for an engraved champagne flute, it’s simple stylish and unique. You know it makes sense.

Alongside engraved champagne flutes you may want to get a bottle gift to go with it. Ideally I’d go for a champagne gift – we offer both engraved champagne as well as personalised champagne, where you design the label of the champagne gift. There are two ways that you can design the label, either by uploading photos and adding text or by choosing one of our pre-designed labels and personalising one of them! Simple.
