Choosing within the Michelangelo collection

Why is this collection well-known?

Michelangelo is one of Luigi Bormioli's timeless collections, an Italian glassmaker recognised for its blown-crystalline ranges. The classic drawing, transparency and value-for-money positioning make it a standard for foodservice and demanding home tables.

What is crystalline?

Crystalline is a high-transparency lead-free glass (as opposed to traditional leaded crystal). It offers a brilliance close to crystal while remaining compatible with daily use and dishwasher cycles.

Which piece to start with?

The 22.5 cl water or wine glass is the most versatile format: it serves equally for water and for a service wine. For more specialised service, the 19 cl is dedicated to wine (tasting format) and the 16 cl flute to champagne.

Are Michelangelo glasses dishwasher-safe?

Yes, Luigi Bormioli crystalline glasses are dishwasher-safe. To preserve shine and the glass's fineness, use a cycle suited to fine glassware with a gentle rinse aid and avoid impacts in the machine.
