Sensory Description
This champagne flute dazzles with a crystal-clear brilliance that dances in the light. The elongated bowl showcases the effervescence of sparkling wines beautifully, while the diamond-textured lower half adds visual depth and tactile charm.

Each sip feels ceremonial, as the glass’s structure complements the lightness and lift of fine sparkling wines.

Producer's Background
Cristal d’Arques–Durand, a flagship brand of Arc International, revolutionized crystal stemware production in the late 20th century by marrying French design traditions with innovative glassmaking techniques. Introduced in 1979, the Longchamp collection quickly became a household favorite for its ornate cuts and accessible luxury. These glasses, made in Arques, France, reflect a period when machine-blown crystal could still carry the charm of artisan craftsmanship. Though no longer in production, Longchamp pieces remain beloved by collectors and design-minded hosts for their enduring sparkle and nostalgic sophistication.

Serving Suggestions
Ideal for Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, or sparkling cocktails, this flute is best served chilled at 46–50 °F to preserve carbonation and aromatics. Its narrow shape emphasizes lively bubbles, making it perfect for festive toasts, anniversaries, or mimosa brunches. Hand-wash only to maintain its pristine clarity and intricate design.
