Consider Pottery Wine Goblets for a Rustic Look

The majority of wine goblets are made from glass. This is because many wine enthusiasts believe the glass plays a big role in the enjoyment of the wine. The glass is usually thin so it will not affect the flavor, and crystal clear so the color can be enjoyed as well. However, some people choose to overlook tradition and choose pottery wine goblets instead of glass. The result is delightfully different, and adds down home charm to any household decor.


If you want a pottery piece with a glass bowl, check out the handcrafted offerings from Mug Heaven. They sell a wine goblet with a pottery base and stem and a glass bowl. This gives you the best of both worlds, you can enjoy the wine from a glass flute while enjoying the handmade beauty of fine pottery. If you want an entire goblet made from clay you can find that as well, you just might have to forgo the traditional stores and try shopping online. The Internet is home to a wide range of different craftspeople who specialize in handmade pottery.

For example, Mississippi Clayworks sells a variety of wine goblets made from food safe stoneware. The colors available include blue ash, gray over black, and gray with blue. This company also sells matching carafes and other pottery items. Blue Ridge Pottery also makes fine stoneware goblets perfect for special occasions or even everyday. Their Forgiveness goblets feature a gorgeous wood stem and base with unique glazed pottery wine bowl. Yet another online store to check out is Pottery Rowe, who carries a variety of chalice style pottery goblets.

One thing is for sure, when entertaining guests you're sure to get plenty of compliments on your pottery wine goblets. They are different than what most people are used to and definitely get attention. You will probably find that most wine tastes just fine from a pottery goblet instead of a glass one. These pottery goblets are perfect not just for wine but for water, punch, soft drinks and any other type of beverage you prefer. Some goblets are to be hand washed only, while others are dishwasher safe so check with the manufacturer to find out.
