Function with Style
When high-tech is expressed in beauty something irresistible is created. As is the case with glasses by Stölzle Lausitz. 128 years of know-how flowed into the making of each wine or champagne glass, in each mug, tumbler and pitcher. Refer to one of our wine glasses from the Quatrophil series to see how Stölzle Lausitz harmoniously combines form and function:
Like Hand-Blown
Your lips feel the essence of glass making art: the thin, finely polished edge, the glass gently reinforcing towards the stem.
Taste-Design
The chalice is designed to give the wine more room to breathe towards the bottom. Towards the glass edge, the opening of the glass narrows: The fine wine flows evenly over the tongue, develops its full aroma and bestows complete enjoyment.
As if from a Single Mould
Smooth transitions and a solid stem – glasses by Stölzle are an aesthetic delight. Solid beauty which gives lasting pleasure.
Elegant & Stable Baseplate
A firm footing is further ensured by the seamlessly welded stem.
Brilliant Crystal Glass
Stölzle-Glasses are free from lead, extraordinarily clear and sparkle in sunlight. This brilliance is created from the Lausitz quartz sand which we combine with soda, potash, and feldspar. Our secret: During the glass melting we add own shards of crystal glass. That saves energy and protects the environment.
Dishwasher Safe
High quality crystal glass by Stölzle is highly resistant during the rinsing process. The glass gently reinforcing towards the stem and the seamlessly transitions between glass top and steam further protect against breakages. For countless wash cycles.
Durability
The slim, drawn stem gives the wine glass not only a touch of elegance, but also stability. The absence of steams on the whole glass increases its robustness for all daily challenges.

Stölzle Lausitz: A Family Business with Strong Ties to Tradition
A certificate from 1433 is the first record of a glass blowing hut in Lausitz. It states that the glasswork produced a greenish or brownish »wood glass«. The area was rich in quartz sand, limestone, clay, and wood. Ideal conditions for the production of glass. Over the years the Lausitz region developed into one of the most important glass making regions in Europe.
The Roots of Stölzle
In 1889 for the first time the »Oberlausitzer Glaswerke J. Schweig and Co.« produced hollow glass. The plant in Weißwasser lived through the eventful history of Germany under different names. Following the reunification of Germany Dr. Cornelius Grupp, a 6th generation family entrepreneur , took over the glassworks.
One of the biggest Producer of Stemware in Germany
Today Stölzle Lausitz GmbH has maintained its independence, even within the company Group Stölzle-Oberglas AG. For 126 years we have been developing new products and processes independently in Weißwasser. Today, Stölzle is one of the biggest producers of stemware in Germany. True wine connoisseurs appreciate the Stölzle Lausitz glasses as the ideal »living space« for good wine. These are the successes for which we thank our loyal employees.
