Hand-blown from the finest European crystal. Offered here is a single stem. The Gravitas Omega is grounded to earth by having no base, but instead is made to lie on its side. The shape of the bowl mimics that of the Zalto Burgundy glass and is the perfect tool as a tasting glass. The Gravitas can also be used for fine cognacs and armagnacs. Feather-light yet dishwasher safe. 100% lead-free. Grounded to earth through the eschewal of a foot at the base of its stem, the Gravitas glass both catches and demands the attention of every wine connoisseur. This precarious balance commands a similar respect for the wine itself. In a Gravitas glass, the wine reveals itself in all its color against a bright background, coats the surface of the sidewalls and instantly imparts its inner character. This unique shape, which incorporates the bowl of the respected Burgundy glass, requires the connoisseur to pose it on the table with the same care they afford the wine. We have also seen this glass used in restaurants for fine cognac and armagnacs. All Zalto glasses are mouth blown and lead free. We recommend using a dishwasher rather than hand washing.
