Six champagne flutes from Estelle Colored Glass in Mocha Mousse, the colorway the studio also calls Amber Smoke. It is a soft, smoky amber that reads warm against a white cloth and turns quietly flattering under candlelight.
Colored champagne flutes solve a problem plain champagne glasses never do: at a party of twenty, everybody can find their own glass again. Six is the practical number, enough for a dinner party without surrendering a cabinet, and enough to mix with another Estelle colorway if you like your colored glassware collected rather than matched. People notice this set from across the room and then ask about it, which makes it an easy wedding gift, a good housewarming, and a very good first grown-up glassware purchase.
How many ounces are in a champagne flute? Champagne flutes commonly hold somewhere between about 6 and 10 ounces filled to the brim, and a standard pour is roughly 4 to 6 ounces. The tall, narrow shape is used because it slows the loss of bubbles compared with a wide bowl.
