Amethyst wine glasses land somewhere between plum and orchid, a deep purple that turns jewel-bright the moment light passes through it. Hand-blown in Poland, each glass holds the color a little differently, which is what keeps a set of six from looking manufactured.
Purple is the shade people hesitate over and then love on the table, because it flatters both a formal setting and a loose garden lunch. It is especially good against gold, cream, and anything with a fig or aubergine note in the styling.
Perfect for: bridal showers, anniversary dinners, jewel tone tablescapes, milestone birthdays, autumn weddings, and dinner parties.
Colored glass looks richest when the tones are close rather than matched exactly. Amethyst next to lavender gives the table depth in a way a single flat color never does, which is the whole argument for collecting across shades.
