Common Questions

Q: How tall is this glass — will it fit a normal kitchen shelf?
A: It stands **18.5 cm (7.3 in)** tall with a **5.5 cm (2.2 in)** bowl — the height of a standard wine glass, so it clears ordinary kitchen shelves and glass cabinets.

Q: Can I actually drink from it, or is it decor only?
A: Both — it is a working stemmed glass made for **chilled wine, champagne, spritzes, and cocktails**, and it holds a shelf as decor between pours.

Q: Is the dachshund painted on the glass?
A: No — the sausage dog is a **solid lampworked glass figure** curled around the stem, and the color dots are raised glass appliqués formed onto the bowl, not printed.

Q: Can I use it for hot drinks?
A: The glass is **heat-resistant borosilicate**, but this piece is intended for cold drinks — chilled wine, cocktails, iced coffee. Keep mulled wine in a mug.

Q: Does it look handmade up close, or only in styled photos?
A: Each glass is **individually lampworked**, so small differences in dot placement and the dachshund figure are normal up close — that variation is the handmade tell.

Styling & Decor Suggestions

• On open kitchen shelving, front row: the amber bowl catches late-afternoon light better than any cabinet interior — face the dachshund outward so the stem reads at a glance.
• The 6 PM Friday pour: one glass, one chilled drink, phone in the other room. A stemmed glass this specific turns an ordinary pour into a small occasion.
• Pairs with the Jelly Macaron Crystal Glassware: mixed candy-color glass on one tray reads as a collection, not a mismatch — keep pieces in the same warm palette.
• On a bar cart's top shelf beside a short stack of cocktail books: the 18.5 cm (7.3 in) height clears standard cart shelving with room to lift it out.
• Skip the crowded everyday cupboard: raised dots and a protruding stem figure should not jostle against stacked tumblers — give it a front-row display slot instead.
