Amazon.com Review
Luigi Bormioli takes the classic Old World duck-shaped decanter and gives it a sleek, modern look. The long angular "neck" cranes out to the side with a crisp, flat-edged rim, while the generous handle allows a good grasp for clean, careful pouring. Plenty of surface area inside the 32-ounce decanter lets a full bottle of fine red wine breathe before drinking. Contemporary stemless as well as traditional stemmed wine glasses, also from the Michelangelo Masterpiece collection, are available separately to complement the dishwasher-safe decanter.

Designed in Italy, the duck decanter is crafted from machine-blown, lead-free crystal. Without the lead, the crystalline glass eliminates health concerns about leaching and still exhibits an exceptional clarity, thanks to the high-silica, pure quartz sand used in the manufacturing process. Packaged in sturdy, colorfully designed boxes, Bormioli glassware makes gift-giving effortless for a housewarming, wedding, thank-you, graduation, or any other special event. --Ann Bieri

The handle on the decanter looked like it was glued on. Other than that it looks good.

How to wash a decanter. August 29, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful

Never put a decanter in the dishwasher. Don't even use soap to clean it. Rinse your decanter with hot water soon after use, and hang to dry on any number of available drying racks. Soap residue is difficult to remove due to the shape of most decanters, and can potentially ruin your next bottle of wine. Extremely hot water will do the trick.

NOT Dishwasher Safe March 19, 2007
1 out of 10 found this review helpful

According to the product description, this item is dishwasher safe. I found it exceedingly difficult to even get the decanter into our dishwasher in a position where water would spray into the opening. Then, after the first washing, there was a chip on the spout. Overall, this decanter is not as durable as I would have expected. The thin glass on the spout is a chip just waiting to happen. I didn't keep this item. I returned it to Amazon.
