A pitcher or decanter on the table does more than hold liquid — it signals that someone thought about the meal before it started. At Lulu and Georgia, the pitchers and decanters collection spans hand-blown and mouth-blown glass pitchers and carafes, ceramic and earthenware pitchers, crystal and cut-glass decanters for wine and spirits, and artisan studio pieces that function as table sculpture. Each chosen for the quality of material and the presence they bring to a table when set down.
What pitchers and decanters does Lulu and Georgia carry?
The collection includes glass and hand-blown pitchers for water and beverages, ceramic and earthenware pitchers for everyday and entertaining use, wine and spirit decanters in crystal and glass, carafes in glass and ceramic, and bar-top decanters with stoppers. Capacities and dimensions are noted on each product page. Many styles coordinate with the drinkware and barware collection for a unified table or bar presentation.
Do I need to decant wine before serving?
Decanting benefits most full-bodied red wines — particularly older bottles with sediment and younger tannic reds that benefit from aeration. Pour slowly against the neck of the decanter and allow 30–60 minutes for younger wines; older bottles may need less time. White wines generally don’t require decanting, though some full-bodied whites benefit from brief aeration. A decanter on the table is also simply an elegant way to serve wine without a bottle label in view.
Is hand-blown glass safe for hot liquids?
Most hand-blown glass pitchers are not recommended for boiling or near-boiling liquids — they are intended for cold and room-temperature beverages. Thermal shock can crack or break glass that is not specifically tempered. For hot beverages, ceramic and earthenware pitchers are the safer choice. Check individual product pages for temperature guidance; most pitchers in the collection are designed for cold water, juice, and cocktail service.
