Bohemia cookware: pros and cons, varieties and choices
For a long time, the Czech province of Bohemia has been famous for its first-class tableware. Her products are also appreciated in our country. It is useful to study how they should be, what they are, and what are the main characteristics of the dishes.
Peculiarities
Bohemia tableware is made of crystal or regular glass. All products of this brand are distinguished by excellent quality and at the same time outwardly beautiful. Bohemian crockery is considered practical and stylish in any room.
Wherever it is placed, the appearance will be luxurious. The original material is made strictly in the western region of the Czech Republic.
Since in Bohemia lead is necessarily added to the glass mass, it actually turns into crystal. Therefore, compared to conventional glass products, bohemian:
- cleaner;
- stronger;
- let in more light.
Specific varieties
A good choice is the Frederica / Madonna Mother of Pearl tea set for 6 people. This kit contains 17 different items.
They are all made from porcelain. The Bernadotte tea service can also be considered a good alternative.
But even better would be such a genuine hit of sales as the Constance / Geese set.
In the assortment of Bohemia, attention is also drawn to:
- a set of wine glasses "Lara" (0.45 l each);
- a set of other 0.25 l Kate wine glasses (yellow, green, red, purple);
- a set of Rococo coffee pairs and some other suggestions.
Main advantages and selection rules
Bohemia cookware differs from other options in a long melodic sound, almost the same as that of metal products. Sounds get like this:
- touch the rim with slightly damp fingers;
- hit with a glass rod (carefully!) on the wall;
- two vessels touch each other.
All three options give equally accurate results.
The second method is considered the most reliable when buying.
When buying Bohemia crockery sets, as well as coffee pairs, special attention should be paid to:
- to the slightest extraneous inclusions (they are completely unacceptable);
- bubbles;
- chips and cracking of glass;
- cloudy areas;
- any other deformations.
Even minor defects mean that the cookware does not meet the quality requirements. It is manufactured using an extremely scrupulous technology and therefore cannot be cheap. But the relative high cost is the only serious disadvantage of such products. Otherwise, she is very good and able to satisfy even the most discerning people. Moreover, the service life of such products is impressive.
Putting Bohemia crockery on the table, there is no doubt that everyone will immediately appreciate this luxury.On a solemn day, she will create an additional positive mood. In the usual way - it will help you tune in to a more strict business mood. High-grade crystal stands out favorably even against the background of ultra-modern materials. All Bohemia brand products are deservedly listed in the luxury category.
Important: you should strictly check the purchased products for counterfeiting.
We strongly recommend to apply for goods to company stores. Only there it is guaranteed to buy products made by hand and at the factory in Svetla nad Sazavou. The enterprise has been operating since 1967, but glass blowers worked in the same places as early as the 16th century. Therefore, we can confidently say that Bohemia products have absorbed the centuries-old experience of thousands of craftsmen.
