- Why would I need Wine Glass charms?
- They are designed to be secured around the stem of your glass. This then has many possiblities, but the top two are to ensure the glass remains yours with no confusion as to the drinker and to complement your dining table by using tonal colours. They can also be used to add a theme to your evening…as a gift to your guests - a wedding favour, a keepsake, a thank you… a dinner dance table gift… a corporate event? The list can go on & on!
- Can I order in quantities other than 6?
- Of course! We commission orders from 1 to as many as you would like. Just contact us with your requirements. Our Wedding & Celebrations section has popular charms in higher quantities available for immediate order.
- Can I specify the crystal colours?
- We will always do our best to meet your needs. The colours shown in the photos are for illustration purposes only. We guarantee that all sets of 6 or 8 will contain different colours unless specified otherwise. If you were to order 2 sets of 6 for the same event, simply contact us prior to ordering and let us know so that we can ensure you receive 12 differently coloured charms. Should you be looking to decorate your glasses rather than identify the drinker, we can colour match for you as closely as possible & will happily accept a swatch to take this one step further.
- How are the charms presented?
- Our sets of 6 are supplied in presentation gift packaging which makes the perfect gift. Sets of 8 will be sent in a velveteen gift bag. To ensure your charms have a home when not in use, we offer the option to purchase a card box or velveteen bag. Should you take this option, we will still send your charms in the gift packaging and the box or bag as a separate item. Larger quantities (usually 100+) can be presented individually in organza bags with/without a card (e.g. as a wedding favour) if you wish. Everything, is of course possible, you only have to ask!
- Do my charms need any maintenance?
- Charms with silver plated beads will tarnish the more they are exposed to light & with increased use. Should this happen, they just need buffing with a soft cloth & a tiny amount of a suitable cleaner. Pure crystal charms are less work to maintain & just need the occasional polish with an appropriate cleaner to maintain their sparkle.
- Can I put my charms in the dishwasher?
- We strongly advise against this as silver plating can be affected by the harsh chemicals. Swarovski crystals will also dull quite quickly in a dishwasher.
- I've broken one … can I get a replacement?
- Of course! Accidents happen so just get in touch with the details of the replacement you need. If you can find your original order it would be a help, but its not entirely necessary. We offer replacements at a sensible cost & with free postage.
- How big is each charm?
- Each charm is made on a 1" ring which is currently the largest available. This size fits most glass stems. 1" is the measurement from crystal to crystal in diameter (across) the charm approximately. If you were to stretch the ring flat, it would measure approximately 3" so if you're uncertain, simply take a piece of string 3" long and see if the ends touch around your stem. We would suggest that its best to have a looser fit for maximum impact.
- Where are your charms made?
- Our charms are handmade in Dorset, UK. Each charm is individually crafted & therefore may differ slightly. We endeavour to source as many of our components from U.K suppliers though Swarovski crystal originates from Austria.
- Do you recommend any other companies?
