Glasses and decanter are all solid feeling and clear. Obviously not the best or most beautiful, but very good for the price.

Bought this set for a wedding gift, I surely hope the young couple like them as well as I do, with the art-deco design on the glasses which are difficult to see from this picture, but it is a rather unique set for a nice gift. Even I wanted to keep this set, because the quality is superior with Bormioli Rocco which is made/sold mostly in Europe for restaurants/pubs. After hearing that the Bormioli company has closed recently, this news made me wish I could stock up on almost anything made by this brand, my oldest daughter purchased wine glasses made by Bormioli Rocco at Ross Dress For Less & she likes the simplistic design & quality as well. I highly recommend any glassware/crystal from this high-end small company. What impressed me most was the weight of these pieces which was very heavy & substantial & for the low cost was very nice without breaking the bank, I think the design & craftsmanship will endure for years.

I bought this as a gift for one of my groomsman. It is very cheap looking and feeling. It’s very light (not leaded as “crystal” is supposed to be) and has a cheap plastic stopper. The 4 glasses are okay, but the decanter is what I bought it for and it is aweful.
I ended up buying another one from Pottery Barn. It didn’t include the glasses but it is WAY higher quality at a lower price.
Skip it, you’ll regret it.

Nice set, I give it 4 stars because the stopped on the cap is a little cheap plastic that doesn’t really cork well, other than that, it feels good, looks good.

Purchased this whiskey set via macy’s.com on amazon and it arrived in tact! Other reviews stated the set arrived in pieces, so this worried me. I bought this for my boyfriend’s birthday and I am sure he will love it! He saw a similar item for mucho $$$ at chrome hearts, which I would never be able to afford, so this set is a great alternative. The glasses are not super light, but not the high-end heavy kind either…we’re in our twenties, so I think for us, this is good enough. If you are buying for a older person who really knows their stuff.. you might consider the more high-end sets.
