Silver Claret Jug - Sterling Silver and Crystal Chalice Claret Jug

J A Campbell 'Chalice' pure Crystal Claret Jug, one of two striking claret jugs in the 'Appetite' collection. Alternatives are also available in the 'Classic' range.

Handmade in our Brentwood workshop it has an elegant hallmarked sterling silver collar and handle. It is most suitable for Claret, but, we're sure you'll agree, it would be wonderful to use it for any wine alongside the matching chalice decanter.
The claret jug is mouth blown using pure crystal. Each piece is unique, having been made by a team of craftsmen, including a master glassblower who has perfected his skills over at least 10 years. In the unlikely event of a mishap, we can repair or replace the crystal body.

As you would expect the most suitable wine served from this jug is Claret, which derives from the French word 'Clairet'. This is a protected name in the EU and describes a Bordeau red wine.

Historically, Claret has not always been the deep red we know today, but was closer to a modern Rose. Hence the French term 'Clairet' meaning 'pale'.

Red wines, especially older ones are greatly improved by decanting. Taste and clarity are enhanced by aerating and removing the sediment.

It is supplied in a lined presentation case that makes it ideal to be presented as a corporate gift or award.

Silver 218grams Height 30.5cm Capacity 100cl
