Tall and graceful, the Lucerne pattern’s sweep cuts evoke a breeze gently swaying over the tall grass of a Swiss mountainside; and is characterized by curvilinear light wedge cuts and a romantic tulip shape. Ideal for serving both red and white wine, this Lucerne Wine glass features the characteristic weight of Waterford’s hand-crafted, fine crystal. Combine quarter cup ammonia with a mild lemon detergent. Rinse in clean water and air dry on a rack. Clean vases and decanters by filling them half-full with moderately hot water, a small amount of mild detergent, two tablespoons of white vinegar or ammonia and 1/2 cup uncooked rice.

This lovely 8-1/2-inch crystal wine balloon is one of Waterford’s Lucerne stemware pieces. Waterford has been making renowned crystal pieces for more than 200 years, and the centuries of craftsmanship are subtly shown in the simple yet mesmerizing Merrill pattern, which also offers a champagne flute, iced beverage glass, and martini glass.
The tulip-shaped bowl of the balloon curves in at the bottom to meet the six-faceted, jewel-cut stem; the stem adds a touch of formality to the look of the glass. A broad foot provides stability. Elongated wedge cuts sprout up from the top of the stem; their gentle curves up and around the glass simulate underwater grasses. Vertical leaf cuts sit among them like blossoms. The gentle spiral effect of the longer cuts shows quite clearly when the glass is rotated. When clinked against another glass in a toast, the Lucerne wine balloon rings with the pure tone that indicates the finest crystal.
To preserve the clarity of crystal and to avoid scratches, do not wash in the dishwasher; harsh detergent and excessive heat could permanently etch surface of glass. Wash with a mild liquid soap in warm (not hot) water. Certain water may leave a lime or mineral deposit on the crystal; if that happens, vinegar on a soft, nonabrasive cloth will help remove the deposit. Rinse with warm water and polish with a lint-free cloth. Edges and rims are delicate; do not store upside down or place upside down on a draining board. When washing or drying, do not wipe bowl of flute while twisting stem in opposite direction. Crystal can focus sunlight into a concentrated beam that could potentially scorch rugs or furniture, so do not store or display in direct sunlight. The wine balloon is 8-1/2 inches tall with a 2-3/4-inch base. –Garland Withers
