Riedel Happy O Wine Tumblers, Set of 4 Feature

  • Fun and trendy assorted colors
  • Popular Riedel O Viognier/Chardonnay size
  • Perfect for entertaining
  • Made in Bavaria of non-lead crystal
  • 11-1/8-ounce full capacity
Riedel's new Happy O line is a colorful take on the company's popular O line of stemless wine tumblers. Each of the four tumblers in this set features a different colored base: red, green, yellow, and blue. When used for water or white wine, the color visually diffuses into the liquid in an appealing manner. Great for entertaining, the individual colors also allow guests to tell which glass is theirs. Riedel uses the Viognier/Chardonnay tumbler for this set, a versatile size and shape that holds a maximum of 11-1/8 ounces and stands 3-7/8 inches tall.

Riedel took the wine world by storm with its trend-setting O line. By removing the stems from wine glasses, Riedel created tumblers that are less likely to break and are more storable in compact kitchens, great for today's lifestyles. The Happy O tumblers are crafted in Bavaria of non-lead crystal, and while dishwasher-safe, they are best washed by hand. --Ann Bieri Oh, Happy O! Perfect for celebrations or everyday use, these Riedel Happy O glasses are Riedel's Viognier/Chardonnay model, with the bases in assorted fluorescent colors; green, yellow, blue and red. These Happy O glasses come as a set of four: one of each color.
