We love to use this Pyramid shape for the carvings. Lot's of space to work with for the desgins. This hunter and animals on the tumblers are all hand carved deeply into the crystal. The animals are different on each tumbler so your guests only have to remember their animal to know which glass is theirs. Elk, Pheasant, Boar, Turkey, Fox, and Goose. A perfect gift for the Hunter in the familiy or for the lodge.
Some reccomend that spirits and wine not be stored in lead crystal, but only served. However I do, and my family has for centuries with no negative results.
Julia Crystal is located in Southern Poland in the Bohemia Silesia area. Blessed with an abundance of the necessary raw materials, including a clear, fresh mountain spring, the area developed an assemblage of gifted artisans-- the "Julia Family."
I Proudly bring you what many consider to be the finest crystal in the world. Julia (prounounced "Yooleeah"), located in Piechowice which is in the southwest mountainious region of Poland. Julia has a long tradition of perfecting this art. The finest silica mixed with 24% lead. Lead is used so that the crystal can be carved, and polished. Lead keeps it from chipping in this process. Many reccommend that lead crystal only be used for serving not storing liquid. It has never cause a problem for me or my family going back centuries however.
