Gold & Clear Crystal Flute
Revel in the taste of your favorite champagne, prosecco or spritzers sipped from these gold and clear crystal champagne glasses hand-crafted in Italy.
Each breath-taking piece is hand-painted with intertwining plumes of gold, then fired to capture its true brilliance. The gold rim lends a festive touch. Ideal for the dining table or bar, they add a splash of sophistication to both casual and elegant gatherings.
Each flute measures 9” high with a 2 ¾” diameter base and holds 4.5 fluid ounces.
The gold feather-like designs are reminiscent of Papageno’s colorful bird-catcher costume seen in the Met’s fanciful production of Mozart’s The Magic Flute.

History
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte)
Mozart’s final opera (written before La Clemenza di Tito but first performed later) premiered in Vienna in September 1791, just weeks before the composer’s death, with Mozart conducting the orchestra from the fortepiano. A timeless fairy tale, it was a major success from the beginning and never lost its place as one of the most popular works in the repertoire. Julie Taymor’s beloved Met production opened in 2004. Its abridged English-language version, which returns in December 2013 as the company’s annual holiday presentation for families, inaugurated the Met’s Live in HD series of performance transmissions to movie theaters around the world in 2006.
