Product Insights
The Embossed Foliage Wine Glass Set Of 2 by Simons Maison offers a durable pressed glass construction with a raised embossed foliage pattern that provides a secure grip and remains visible even when filled, making it suitable for both reds and whites during entertaining. Priced at $9.99 in clearance (about $5 per glass), the set is exceptionally affordable for its design, though the hand-wash requirement is necessary to prevent chipping or clouding of the pattern. The identical, symmetric glasses, part of a matching serveware collection, cater to cohesive tablescapes but demand careful maintenance.

Deep Research
Wine suitability for a 16 oz glass
- At 480 ml, the bowl capacity exceeds the typical 350–415 ml of standard wine glasses, allowing a generous 6–8 oz pour that still leaves enough headroom for vigorous swirling — this makes it particularly well-suited to bold reds like Cabernet Sauvignon, where aeration directly enhances flavor.
- A typical 5-ounce restaurant pour fills only about one-third of the glass, meaning the transparent body and raised foliage pattern remain highly visible even in use — an aesthetic advantage for dinner parties or occasions where the glassware is part of the tablescape.
- The classic stemmed profile without varietal-specific contours makes the glass a flexible choice that performs well across a range of wine styles — from crisp Sauvignon Blanc to a light Pinot Noir — reducing the need for multiple specialized stemware sets in a smaller kitchen.
How embossed glass is made and what it means for durability
- Both glasses in the set are produced from the same mold, so the foliage pattern is identical on each — a consistency that hand-cut or engraved patterns cannot achieve, ensuring a matched pair that looks perfectly uniform on a formal table setting.
- Pressed glass typically has slightly thicker, more consistent walls than mouth-blown glass, giving these wine glasses a more substantial hand-feel and better resistance to breakage from accidental bumps than delicate blown-stemware alternatives.
- The embossed foliage is created by pressing molten glass into a mold, fusing the raised design directly into the glass body; unlike surface-applied decals or acid-etched motifs, this pattern is a permanent part of the glass that will never scratch off, fade, or wear down with use and hand-washing.
Simons Maison brand quality and design reputation
- The listing's note that 'matching pieces sold separately' confirms that the foliage embossing extends beyond wine glasses to other serveware within the Simons Maison assortment, giving buyers the option to build a cohesive tablescape — a hallmark of the brand's design philosophy that encourages mix-and-match within a curated seasonal theme.
- Simons Maison is the proprietary home brand of Simons, the Quebec-based department store established in 1840, which means the design, sourcing, and curation are handled in-house, yielding trend-responsive collections without external licensing fees — a model that typically translates to a lower price point for design-forward pieces compared to equivalent national brands.
- At the original $25 CAD for a set of two, Simons Maison positions these glasses above basic commodity stemware but well below crystal or designer-brand equivalents, occupying a sweet spot where the value is primarily in the on-trend design rather than material prestige; the $9.99 clearance price takes that value proposition to an impulse-level where the cost per glass rivals everyday disposable drinkware.
- The product copy explicitly labels the embossed foliage as 'this season's must-have,' signaling that Simons Maison treats its patterns as periodic fashion drops rather than perennial staples; the current $9.99 sale price (down from $25) is likely an end-of-season clearance, making this a time-sensitive purchase for buyers who want the design before it retires.

Q&A
4 answered- Is the embossed foliage pattern raised or indented, and does it affect the grip or feel when holding the glass?
- The embossed foliage pattern is raised (3D), creating a distinct tactile feel that can improve grip when holding the glass. Embossed patterns protrude outward and add texture to the surface [1].
- Can these wine glasses be safely washed in a dishwasher despite the hand-wash-only label, or is the pattern/glass too delicate?
- We recommend following the 'hand-wash only' label. While some wine glasses are dishwasher safe, the embossed pattern and glass type may be more delicate; hand washing in warm water with mild soap is safest to preserve the design and prevent chipping or cloudiness [1].
- Is the glass lead-free?
- The product information does not explicitly state whether the glass is lead-free. However, most modern transparent glassware, especially from brands like Simons Maison, is typically made from standard soda-lime glass which is lead-free. If you have specific concerns, we recommend contacting the manufacturer directly.
- Are these glasses suitable for everyday use or more decorative/occasional use due to the embossing and thinness?
- These glasses can be used for everyday drinking, but the embossed pattern and hand-wash-only care make them better suited for special occasions or careful daily use. The raised design adds elegance but may require more gentle handling to avoid chipping [2].
