This crystal is just beautiful! It is heavy, well cut, has a nice drinking edge, and sparkles under the light. My only problem is matching glass sizes. The descriptions don't give enough information to tell if the glass is the same size as ones I already have. Sometimes it goes by the oz.'s it holds but were do they measure to? half way up the wine glass? all the way to the lip? 1/2" from the lip? My suggestion would be to order as many glasses as you need at one time so you are sure you are getting the same size. There have been a few flaws in the crystal. One wine glass had a tiny sharp piece on the side. I think it can be sanded off, but I haven't tried yet. Another had a tiny dimple in the side that I tried to wash off :) until I realized it was in the glass. I ordered two pitcher and glass sets and one pitcher had a broken handle when it arrived; but I kept it because I would have had to send the glasses back too and I needed them for Chrismas, and the product was no longer available. Overall, I have been very pleased with the glasses. My guests at Chrismas oohed and awwed over the table and said it looked like something out of a magazine. I will be buying more water goblets and iced tea glasses until I have a whole set. I just hope they are all the same size :)

Beautiful and classy! Nice weight, perfect size, and they all arrived intact, none broken! They are even in a nice box if you have to save them till each use, as I do, due to lack of cabinet space. Picture me smiling as I drink my wine!!

I gave a set of these wine glasses by Cristal d'Arques as a gift and they were much appreciated and very well liked--pretty as well as affordable--you can't beat that!

When these were initially offered for sale in the 1980's they were 24% lead crystal, with plenty of sparkle and a nice ring to them, like crystal should ring. They were heavier than these today by a long shot. Also there were 6 glasses per box. Now they are just clear glass and sold in sets of 4 per box. Not worth the money. If you want good crystal glasses, expect to pay $ 14.00 per glass and up and don't waste your money on these fakes. People who know crystal glasses know these are not a good buy for the money. Do your homework people don't be taken by misleading advertising, or thinking they are genuine lead crystal glasses ! The real ones are only available on the secondary market at replacements.com and were made by J.Durand in France, not Arc International.Cristal D'Arques Longchamp, Set of 4 If they do not come in a blue box, set of 6 per box, and J Durand on it, they are not the original Cristal D'Arques Longchamp glasses.

Wonderful shipping, arrived in great condition. This was a gift and the recipients were very happy.Thank you for the rapid service and fair price.

I received the wine glasses just in time for Christmas gift. The glasses were beautiful cut crystal and were a big hit with the person who received them.

I'm not a crystal expert by any means, but the glasses are pretty and a nice weight. One of mine did chip on the first use but I suspect it was from an over enthusiastic New Years Eve toast by one of the kids. I wanted something that looked nice but I didn't have to hold my breath when we used them... I'm very happy with this choice!

These were better than advertized. For the price, you can't find more beautiful crystal glasses. They were a gift and my mother-in-law just loves them.

I actually use these stemmed glasses for everyday - they look nice when the table is dressed up and they are easy to use on a daily basis - the glasses are not expensive and I like feeling special when I drink out of crystal just because I can.

I ordered six boxes of these glasses = 24 of them. Out of the 24, only six were salvageable after shipping. They were not packaged properly - absolutely no bubble wrap used - and were shattered. I will NOT order something breakable like this from Amazon again. This is a huge disappointment!
