Personalised Champagne Glass: Sizing, Care and Engraving Guide
A Champagne Glass Built for the Moments Worth Marking
The Personalised Champagne Glass is a 19cl clear champagne flute, laser-engraved to order in AtaNova's Antwerp atelier. It's designed for toasts, celebrations, and the kind of occasions where a glass gets raised rather than simply poured — an engagement, a wedding, a New Year's countdown, an anniversary.
This guide covers sizing, care, and what to engrave so the personalisation suits the occasion.
Sizing: What 19cl Actually Means
At 19cl (190ml), the flute is sized for a proper champagne pour without being oversized — tall and narrow, built to preserve the bubbles and aroma the way a traditional flute is meant to. It's a celebratory glass rather than an everyday one, suited to occasions where the toast itself matters as much as the drink.
What Should You Engrave?
Because the flute is tall and narrow, engraving typically sits along the stem, where it reads cleanly without interfering with the bubbles rising through the bowl.
- [Couple's Names] — [Wedding Date]
- Cheers to [Year]
- [Name] — Engaged [Date]
- Happy New Year
- To Us
Keep the engraving short and proportional to the stem — a date or a couple's names reads clearly, while a longer message can crowd the narrow surface.
Caring for a Personalised Champagne Glass
- Hand wash with warm water and mild soap; avoid the dishwasher, which can dull both the glass and the engraved surface over time.
- Dry with a soft cloth rather than air-drying, to prevent water spots forming around the engraved area.
- Store upright rather than resting on the rim, to protect the delicate flute shape and the engraving.
- Handle by the stem rather than the bowl, both to keep the champagne cool and to protect the glass from fingerprints and pressure marks.
When Does a Personalised Champagne Glass Make Sense?
A champagne glass suits occasions built around a toast: an engagement, a wedding, an anniversary, a New Year's celebration, or a milestone worth raising a glass to. Because it's tied more closely to celebration than daily use, it works especially well engraved with a specific date, and it pairs naturally with a second flute or a wine glass for a more complete gift.
What Should You Avoid?
- Using the dishwasher regularly: hand-washing keeps the delicate flute shape and the engraving in better condition long-term.
- Guessing at a date: confirm the exact engagement or wedding date before ordering, since it can't be changed after production.
- Overcrowding the engraving: a date or short phrase reads more clearly than a long message on a narrow stem.
