This product can be used for everyday purposes or as a simple way to add a touch of luxury or opulence to a home. A good crystal brandy snifter like this one, enhances the experience of enjoying brandy. I don't drink brandy really, but my husband does, and he says drinking it out of a snifter makes him feel like James Bond. One other great thing about owning crystal is it really pays for itself and probably even saves you money (not to mention headaches) in the long run--at least if you are a clumsy person like me! I don't know how many times I've broken something made of glass; but good crystal is super durable. I've dropped mine MANY times and so has my equally heavy handed husband--and it has never even chipped!! I really wonder at this point what you would have to do to break it. I own both crystal from "Barton and Reed" and "Shannon"--I would attest to the endurance and longevity of either. This crystal or one like it affords an elegant ambience, improves the sophistication of any beverage, is relatively affordable, and because of its virtual immunity to breaking, saves one the trouble of replacing the product or cleaning up the typical mess of broken glass. Definitely a good investment for someone looking to class up their house or for someone who isn't so graceful when it comes to handling fragile decor! I'm telling you, you can't easily break it. I should know. yeah so, to sum it up, I LOVE my pretty crystal!"..." Read more
