From this simple idea were created a Red Wine Glass, a White Wine Glass, a Dessert Wine Glass, a Liqueur Glass and a Champagne Glass.īoasting exceptional savoir-faire, the House of Puiforcat offers pieces of its heritage while imagining the classics of tomorrow.

The partners imagined a chalice that would sit on a silver-plated or gold-plated metal base. Puiforcat brought together Lombardy native Enrico Bernardo, 2004 “World's Best Sommelier,” and London-based designer Michael Anastassiades, champion of minimalist elegance to design and create first a wine glass series. This collection was created to celebrate the art of enjoying wine. The Dessert Wine Glasses (Set of 2) by Michael Anastassiades for Puiforcat is part of the Orfèvre-Sommelier Collection.
