here is what you will be winning:

The Afterglow Glassware Collection is a tribute to clean, colorless crystal. The Afterglow Collection features an elegant etched pattern. After the glass form is created from molten glass by an artisan, it is then allowed to cool. Then the matte finish at the bottom of each piece is created when the glass is dipped into an acidic substance causing the glass to be "frosted" yet smooth. Each individual piece then goes on to etching stations where craftsmen etch the lined pattern into each piece of glassware. Pieces include: Candle Cone, Champagne Flute, Halo Flute, Martini Glass, and Vase.

Gorgeous Wine Glasses


I received a package the other day from a company called Gorgeous Wine Glasses. In my package I received four absolutely beautiful champagne flutes. The glasses are hand painted as well as etched. A blurb From their site


“We specialize in fine imported Romanian wine glasses, glass bud vases, a wine and whiskey decanter as well as a variety of other unique crystal items! Each piece in this line of mouth-blown and hand-decorated crystal is produced individually in Europe at the Cristiro factory in Bistrita, BN, Transylvania, Romania. You'll find exquisite, hand etched and hand painted crystal products ranging from flute glassware to a hand blown glass martini pitcher and everything in between.”

Their glassware is absolutely stunning. The pictures do absolutely no justice to the actual glasses. The crystal sparkles under any light and the painting is beautiful. The flutes that I received were from their Bacchus collection. They are hand painted and absolutely stunning.. I cant seem to say that enough, but there really is no other adjective to explain them except stunning!!



They have many different collections and have not only glasses, but decanters, candle holders, plates, and vases. Being that they are all hand painted no two glasses are exactly alike. You must go check out the painted castle vases!! Soo pretty! They are on the pricey side but once you see them you will understand why and realize for the craftsmanship and the quality explains the price. You definitely get what you pay for!!!! You can get an entire glass wares set including dishes.. They have regular drinking glasses..
They do wash well but I would never put them in the dishwasher.. Only washing them by hand. I would be heart broken if they were to break. If you are looking for a beautiful, unique set of glassware I would highly, highly recommend them.

Pro: Beautiful glasses, they sparkle A LOT, very unique designs.
Con: nothing
Overall: as the name says gorgeous glasses. If you really want a full set of glassware that all match check them out!! They are both painted and etched. You will love them as much as I do!! Check them out on facebook and give them some love tell them that 3g sent you, or you can visit their website at Gorgeous Wine Glasses..



Also, stay tuned for a giveaway from them!! get your very own beautiful glasses!!!
