Product Description
The Chef & Sommelier Symétrie range is a collection of crystal wine glasses designed for professional table service environments where presentation and durability both matter. Each glass features a slender, upright profile with an internal optic that interacts with light in a way that flatters the colour and clarity of the wine — a detail that tends to be noticed in more considered dining settings.
The glasses are produced from Krysta crystal, a material chosen specifically for commercial use. It has a clarity closer to fine crystal than standard glass, but without the fragility that tends to make traditional crystal impractical in busy service environments. Flame polishing and laser cutting at the rim give a clean, consistent finish and improve chip resistance at one of the most vulnerable points on any wine glass.
For front-of-house teams, the practical advantages are straightforward:
- Consistent shape across the set supports efficient glassware stacking and handling
- Krysta material retains clarity after repeated commercial glasswasher cycles
- Laser-cut rim reduces chipping risk during handling and service
- Tall, slender profile suits both red and white wine service without overpowering the table
- Pack of 12 provides a practical opening quantity for most cover settings
These glasses are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, private members clubs, and event venues where table presentation is taken seriously but glassware also needs to perform reliably through a busy service. They are not intended for very high-volume, rapid-turnaround operations where a heavier-duty or more economy-focused glass would be a more practical fit.
If you are considering these for a specific setting or want to discuss quantities and alternatives, the team is happy to help you work through the right choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The Krysta crystal material is designed to withstand repeated commercial glasswasher cycles while retaining clarity. As with all fine glassware, using the correct glasswasher rack inserts and appropriate detergent dosing will extend the working life of the glasses considerably.
- That depends on your cover count, service style, and how quickly glassware cycles through washing. A general starting point is two to three glasses per cover to allow for breakage and the glasswasher turnaround time during service. For a 40-cover restaurant, two packs of 12 is often a minimum opening quantity, with most operators holding additional stock as a buffer.
- The Symétrie range is better suited to restaurant and hotel dining environments where presentation is a priority and handling is relatively controlled. For high-volume banqueting or outdoor event use, where glassware is handled rapidly by large teams and breakage rates tend to be higher, a more robust or economy-focused glass is likely to be a more practical and cost-effective choice.
