I was looking for a special glass to have my weekly Martini in and wanted it to feel special . No other place to purchase from than here . Excellent quality , weighty and feels like a special treat drinking from every time . Fantastic product
I’ve had Cumbria Crystal for many years here in Australia! As they get used regularly,… unfortunately sometimes they get damaged… hence replacing them is necessary! Still the best Crystal in the world!

looking forward to hang this on the tree
Couldn't see what the defects were in any of the glasses. Absolutely stunning glasses. Will be back for more!
The bauble is so beautiful. I'm very happy with them - the look, the feel, the weight, the ribbon and the fact that they are handmade so near to me. They arrived very well packed and in good time too.
Beautiful, high-quality, hand-made product with a good weight to it, definitely not a flimsy machine made mass-produced Argos special.
Great place to visit and see how it's made, too.
I've had these a few weeks now having ordered on-line. I love the weight and feel of these glasses. The style and level of craftsmanship is superb and faultless, add into that the service and communication. I can't recommend Cumbria Crystal enough.
Added to our Grasmere crystal and as always delighted with the design, weight and style of our 2 new whisky glasses. Prompt delivery and good packaging. We'll be back as needed.
Just the weight of these glasses make you appreciate whatever they hold. The feel of the engravings and the sparkle in the cut crystal. They glasses are a joy to use and even to wash up. They make small casual moments something special.
I recently purchased three beautiful items from Cumbria Crystal: the Helvellyn Lidded Preserve Jar, the Summer Tide Champagne Glass, and the Summer Waves Champagne Coupe. Each piece is truly exquisite, with the handcrafted quality that Cumbria Crystal is known for.
The Helvellyn Preserve Jar is perfect for adding elegance to any breakfast or tea setup, and it feels incredibly refined with its detailed design and solid craftsmanship. The Summer Tide Champagne Glasses are equally stunning, with a light, fresh design that really captures the essence of celebratory moments.
One thing that truly impressed me was the service I received when the Summer Waves Champagne Coupe was out of stock. Despite this, Cumbria Crystal went above and beyond, handcrafting my order just for me. I couldn't be happier with the level of care, attention, and quality they delivered. These pieces are more than just glassware—they’re true works of art and a joy to use. Highly recommended!
Our crystal coups are superb, beautifully crafted and a delight to use.
Great day out made easy to do catering for all abilities. Some great memories and the girls loved every minute of it.
Thank you
