These products come with different options and in many different varieties to meet all of your restaurant, church, hotel and home glassware needs.
DuraTuff
DuraTuff products are treated with a special thermal afterprocess for “pressed” tumblers and stemware. The Libbey glassware lines that have undergone the DuraTuff process are: Gibraltar, Winchester, Inverness, Paneled Tumblers, Everest and Dakota. The DuraTuff process increases the upper portion of the glassware’s resistance to both thermal (temperature changes) and mechanical (bumping) shock. Obviously this procedure increases the service life of the treated products. Libbey also offers DuraTuff plates and bowls.
Heat-Treated Glassware
Heat-Treated glasses are treated through a special heating and rapid cooling process after the glass is formed. This process, like the DuraTuff process, provides increased resistance on the upper portion of the glass to thermal and mechanical shock.
Luigi Bormioli
Luigi Bormioli is an entire collection of Libbey glasses developed to provide superior, resonant blown glass in quality and purity rivaling that of lead crystal.
Hand Blow Glass
Hand blown glass is also available. This type of glass has uniquely individual characteristics.
Safedge Rim Guarantee

Libbey will replace or refund the price of any one-piece stemware item if the rim or foot chips (but not if it breaks). This guarantee applies to such lines as Estate, Chivalry, Embassy Royale, Embassy, Lexington, Catalina, Teardrop, etc.
Finedge

Sheer Rim/Dura Temp Edge
Sheer Rim/Dura Temp Edge (D.T.E.) stemware and tumblers have a beadless edge that is first cracked off then polished to produce a fine yet durable edge. It is elegant yet affordable and still provides a longer service life. This glassware also has a guarantee against chippage of the rim.
