Delivery Information

Price Match

The Libbey Teardrop Champagne Flute is a 170ml stemmed flute with a legal compliance etching (LCE) at 125ml, making it suitable for licensed venues serving sparkling wine and prosecco by the glass. The teardrop bowl profile tapers towards the rim, which helps retain carbonation and directs the pour neatly. Constructed from soda lime glass in a single-piece mould, the flute has a strengthened rim and base — the two points most vulnerable to chipping in a busy service environment.

In practical bar and restaurant use, the one-piece construction means there is no joint between bowl and stem to weaken over time or under the mechanical stress of a commercial glasswasher. The reinforced rim holds up reasonably well to the knocks of stacking and racking, though as with all stemmed glassware, careful handling during collection and washing will extend the useful life of the stock. The LCE mark removes the need for separate measuring, which helps speed up service at the bar.

  • One-piece construction reduces breakage at the stem joint
  • Strengthened rim and foot improves resistance to chipping
  • LCE at 125ml supports compliance for licensed premises
  • Dishwasher safe — suitable for commercial glasswasher use
  • Teardrop profile helps retain carbonation during service

These flutes are well suited to wine bars, gastropubs, restaurants, and event catering operations that want a presentable, practical flute without the fragility of thinner crystal-style glassware. They work equally well for everyday table service and private dining. If your venue goes through high volumes of covers or operates multiple outlets, it is worth considering your par stock carefully — having sufficient quantity in rotation reduces the pressure on any single wash cycle.

If you are building out a glassware range or are unsure how many to hold in stock for your cover count, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are these flutes suitable for use in a commercial glasswasher?

Yes, the one-piece soda lime construction and reinforced rim make these flutes suitable for commercial glasswasher use. As with all stemmed glassware, using a purpose-designed flute rack rather than an open basket will help protect them during the wash cycle.

Do these flutes meet UK legal measure requirements for sparkling wine?

Yes, they carry a Legal Compliance Etching (LCE) at 125ml, which satisfies the requirement for serving sparkling wine by the glass in licensed UK premises without a separate measuring vessel.

How many should a venue hold in stock for regular service?

A common working rule is to hold two to three times your maximum cover count in stemmed glassware to allow for breakage, washing cycles, and stock in transit between service periods. For high-volume venues or those running multiple sittings, erring towards the higher end of that range is sensible.
