Review on πŸŽ„ Spode Christmas Tree Goblets with Pedestals by Harald Patterson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Darker than expected, a bit disappointed

They are very pretty but I wasn't thrilled with them which is why they got 4 stars. The printed image is printed a little oddly low on the glass, which doesn't look odd in the picture, but it doesn't in person. The printed image of the tree has quite dark colors that blend into each other so all the fancy details in the image are lost and mixed together rather than appearing as a beautiful tree with decorations, and even the gold foil border is darker and not very shiny like the other the gold rimmed glassware that I have seen and own, not so pretty. This is BY HAND ONLY, putting them in the dishwasher will erase the image. In addition, you should only hand wash with a soft sponge and do not use a dishwashing sponge, otherwise the border and image will peel off easily. DO NOT wash or rinse in hot water and DO NOT use BLEACH or other detergents! Therefore, wash them gently with a mild dishwashing liquid immediately after use and avoid filling them with things that can cause food poisoning unless they are washed under hygienic conditions. For example; Don't put dairy or eggnog in it, but juice and wine are perfectly safe.

Pros
  • Serving set
Cons
  • Not as thick as the other options
