Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Review One of Godinger's most well-loved patterns, Dublin crystal glassware unites time-honored European craftsmanship and classic Irish style. A member of the larger Shannon collection, this set of 12 all-purpose goblets features dazzling starburst etchings that are centered low on the tapered bowls and stretch up to just below the rims and down to meet the thick stems. Hand-crafted of weighty 24 percent lead crystal, these versatile 9-ounce tumblers suit a formal dining table or bar, yet are sturdy enough to be used as dressy everyday glasses. They join the full Dublin line to add luminescent elegance to your home décor. Godinger recommends washing the set by hand. --Kara Karll
Product Description These stems resemble the famous cut lead crystal of Ireland both by virtue of their heavy weight and intricately patterned design. Hand-crafted in Slovakia using the techniques that Bohemian glass blowers and cutters have employed for centuries, this set is much more affordable.

Nice Glassware January 14, 2008 Awesome look at a cheap price. We'll use it every now and then, so for the entire set of twelve at less than what a single Waterford glass would cost, it was an effective purchase. Good quality glass as well.

I am so pleased with this crystal! I bought the Goblets and the Dof's,, on Sunday and received them on Tuesday!! Not only is the crystal gorgeous and a great buy,,, Amazon has blown me away!! I received my order in perfect condition in two days time,,, they packaged this crystal very carefully,,,, I just wish that I would have ordered the iced beverage from here as well,,, I orderd them from a well known department store 4 days ago and they are telling me that they won't ship out for another week! Kudo's to you Amazon! I will buy here again!!
Wow! December 20, 2007 I just received this set of goblets which I bought for a Christmas present for my son and his wife, and I was absolutely bowled over by the quality of the goblets - particularly at the price paid!!! The crystal goblets are large, and heavy - and arrived undamaged. I can state unequivocally that it is only due to Amazon's excellent packing that the goblets arrived intact - the outer box was half open and damaged - and even some damage to the second packing box - but because of all the careful packaging and cushioning the contents were pristine. Thank you Amazon.com!
Great for entertaining! October 25, 2007 Had many complements on these crystal glasses and would definitely recommend them to anyone who likes to entertain and impress their guests.Also if any of them break you won't kill yourself over it because they were such a good deal...not like real crystal that will cost you an arm and a leg for each piece.They look beautiful on the china cabinet as well.

I have never received so many complements about my crystal as I did with these. My "good" crystal cost over $50 per glass and they hardly get noticed! I bought these for a dinner party because I didn't have 12 goblets and they looked like a good deal. I'm going to buy more for coctail parties. They are substantial and look like they cost a great deal more than they do. If you look really closely, you can tell they aren't high end crystal, but no one looks that closely - especially at a fancy dinner that has low light and candles. There's no worry here if someone chips one. Also, at this price I didn't worry about putting them in the dishwasher.
