Additional Information : The stem is complex. however the 3 elements are distinctive and seperate. We have also shown the glass next to two standard sized Ogee bowl wines which gives you some idea of the smaller bowl proporations on a standard sized stem. Its should be noted that air tear has been accidentally introduced at the base of stem. This is attractive but it is not a mixed twist.
