C&S GALEA Crystal Wine Glass 55CL Chef and Sommelier

Description

Galea – made of crystal glass – Krysta*. The brand “Chef&Sommelier” collection Galea is the Art Nouveau-inspired elegance, drawn from the harmony of beauty and functionality. The concept is based on flowing and light beauty guided by practicality. The glasses feature a tapered upper rim, giving them a classic and timeless appearance. The glasses’ geometry incorporates a large aromatic chamber for the wine’s aromas to be fully revealed. Outstanding clarity and shine – absolute transparency: The material has a completely neutral color index with a light transmission coefficient of 98.8. This means the glass does not alter the true hue of wine or other beverages, allowing assessment of visual nuances and ensuring an absolutely clear and transparent look. Long-lasting brilliance: Krysta retains its original luster and clarity even after intensive use. Laboratory tests show the glasses remain bright after 2000 washing cycles in an industrial dishwasher. Clean sound: In use, Krysta produces a clean, musical and crisp acoustic tone, characteristic of the finest crystal. Revolutionary durability – although these glasses look very refined and delicate, they are mechanically particularly durable: thanks to the special chemical composition and production process, the stems and bowls are about 30% more resistant to edge chipping and cracking than standard crystal glass. Stem resilience: The glass stem (often reinforced in production) can withstand torsion and bending loads that typically occur when polishing the glass with a towel. Sensorial tasting innovation – especially thin rims: Krysta technology enables glasses with notably thin rims (often around 1 mm or less). This provides a pleasant and refined sensation when sipping, as the glass rim “disappears” between the lips, allowing the focus to be fully on the drink’s flavor. * Krysta is a specially developed, high-performance lead-free crystal glass material created by the French glassmaker ARC (known for the Chef & Sommelier brand). The technology and material are designed to combine the fragile glass’s elegance with the durability required for professional use.
