Royal Scot Clasic Ships Decanter crystal is produced in a high quality European glass factory which ensures great value for the quality. The Classic Ships Decanter decanter derives it\'s name from it\'s flat base. This ensured that it was stable on board ships and not a drop would be spilled in topsy turvey seas. It is traditionally used for decanting and serving all wines and spirits. Please note that as is the case with all glassware there can be very marginal production variances and evidence of tool marks in the manufacture. These are normally only visible on very close inspection and should not affect your overall enjoyment or use of the glass.
