Anniversary

A set of 2 in our premium gift box, designed to be used together every anniversary. Our Brandy & Cognac Snifter set of 2 and Crystal Prosecco & Champagne pair are built exactly for this – two glasses that pair the couple and get used for every milestone toast from now on. For luxe anniversaries (10th, 25th), the Art Deco Iridescent Coupes or Venus Seashell Coupes are visually distinctive enough to feel 'milestone year.'

Traditional lists vary: paper (1st), cotton (2nd), leather (3rd), fruit/flowers (4th), wood (5th), crystal (15th), china (20th), silver (25th). Modern lists include crystal earlier, around the 3rd or 5th anniversary. We recommend treating glassware as the practical anniversary gift regardless of year – a set used annually for the anniversary toast compounds emotional value more than any single one-off gift.

$40–$70 for a thoughtful pair or set of 4. Glassique Cadeau anniversary-appropriate sets range from $36 (Crystal Prosecco & Champagne set of 2) to $69 (Art Deco Iridescent Coupes set of 4). Milestone anniversaries (10th, 25th, 50th) deserve the higher end – the Venus Seashell Coupes or Prestige Coupes with Gold Rims.

The Art Deco Iridescent Coupes (set of 4) or Venus Seashell Coupes (set of 4) – both are visually distinctive enough to feel 'silver anniversary' without literally using silver. The iridescent coupe catches light like silver from every angle. The Venus Seashell is sculptural enough to become a milestone keepsake. Both ship in our premium gift box with cocktail recipes printed on the lid.

Glassique Cadeau hand-blown lead-free crystal glasses are dishwasher safe on a gentle, low-temperature cycle – but hand washing is the safer long-term choice for keeping rims smooth and crystal clarity intact. Use warm water and a mild detergent, avoid extreme temperature changes (never put a frozen glass into a hot wash), and air-dry on a soft cloth. For sets with gold rims, painted detail, or hand-cut crystal – the Octagonal Gold-Rim Coupes and the Art Deco Speakeasy Lowballs in particular – hand wash only to preserve the finish.

Yes – lead-free crystal is the modern standard for premium glassware and is safe for everyday use with any beverage. Traditional lead crystal contained up to 32% lead oxide, which improved clarity and weight but could leach trace lead into spirits stored long-term in decanters. Lead-free crystal (sometimes called crystalline or potassium-zinc crystal) uses barium, zinc, or potassium oxides instead, delivering the same brilliance, weight, and ring without the safety concern. Every Glassique Cadeau glass is hand-blown from lead-free crystal and tested to comply with FDA and EU food-contact standards.

Yes – every Glassique Cadeau set ships in our signature gift box, ready to wow at unboxing. The box is structured, branded, and printed with the cocktail recipe for the glass inside (an Old Fashioned recipe with our lowballs, a French 75 with our coupes, a classic Martini with our martini glasses). No additional gift wrap needed. For weddings, housewarmings, engagements, anniversaries, and birthdays, every set is already presentation-ready straight out of the shipping carton.

Yes – Glassique Cadeau offers free standard shipping on every U.S. order over $89. Most sets ship the next business day from our warehouse, with delivery in 3-6 business days. Every shipment is packed with reinforced padding and tracked end-to-end, and any breakage in transit is replaced free of charge. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for time-sensitive gifts (weddings, milestone anniversaries, holiday deadlines).

Hand wash Glassique Cadeau crystal glasses in warm water with a mild detergent, then air-dry upside down on a soft cloth or stemware rack to prevent water spots. Avoid extreme temperature changes – never pour ice into a hot-from-the-dishwasher glass or hot liquid into a refrigerated one, since thermal shock can crack crystal. Store stemware upright (not on the rim) to protect the lip. For gold-rimmed, painted, or hand-cut sets, hand wash only. Lead-free crystal is durable, but it rewards gentle handling – every glass is hand-blown, so each one is unique.
