Hi,
Rather than drag out the ice bucket whenever you'd like to enjoy a little vino, Steven Chavez and Justin English's innovative set of four chillers allow you to enjoy wines by the glass at their ideal sipping temperatures. Simply freeze this set of four sleek, stainless steel orbs, pour a glass, then drop a few into your wine. Like ice cubes, the more "pearls" you use, the more frosty your beverage will get. The sophisticated, oval shape of the chillers is ideal for round-bottomed glasses, since the glimmering spheres will pile up elegantly in the bowl after they're plinked in one at a time.
While vino aficionados wouldn't dare serve a white wine at room temperature, it's also important to give red wines the same consideration. When reds are served too warm, the alcohol tends to predominate, concealing the fruit of the wine and resulting in a loss of typicity and personality. Fortunately, when you pop a wine pearl into a room-temperature pour of red wine, you can bring it down to cellar temperature (54–64º F/12–16º C) in a matter of minutes.
While these pearls are perfect for wine, their ability to chill without altering or diluting delicate flavors also makes them ideal for cooling top-shelf liquors, delicate cocktails, and fresh fruit juices. Made in China.
Sold as a set of 4.

About 80% of all soapstone quarried is deemed waste or scrap material. In an effort to regain control of this waste and turn it into something useful, Steven Chavez and Justin English set out to clean up the quarries and find a purpose for the discarded stone.
Soapstone is one of the most effective natural materials on earth for conducting and retaining temperature, so Steven and Justin turned to these natural properties to handcraft a beautiful line of soapstone kitchen and barware. They've recently expanded into stainless steel, bringing the same level of sophisticated design and utility to entertaining ware. Their company is based in Denver, where the majority of the products are handcrafted.

I got this for my mother-in-law, as she is always putting ice into her white wine, which eventually gets watered down. She put them into freezer immediately after opening and was using them by the time we starting eating. Great way to keep white wine chilled.

We used the product for the first time tonight. My wife didn't care for cooling her red wine that much...so you can say it worked as advertised. Next time we might use just one instead of two in a red.
They are nerve racking to wash; I'm always paranoid that I'll drop one down the drain. They are just as nerve racking to drop into your glass. Everyone at the table was on edge thinking they would crack the glass; but luckily they didn't.
Biggest complaint was the shipping. The square box that they were packaged in was sent in an envelope that was just large enough to fit the box. So you can imagine the condition of the product packaging when it arrived...smashed. If it hadn't been a gift I wouldn't have cared. I tried my best to get it put back into shape before gift wrapping. Disappointing.
We are regular wine drinkers, so we look forward to trying out with a wide variety of wines. ;)

Put these in freezer and never worry about buying that great discounted wine that is not Chilled
Just plop them in and enjoy chilled glass of wine. Great for summer patio wine.

Bought them to cool a single glass of wine for that last-minute treat. They don't work! Great idea, but totally disappointing!

We all always put a little ice in our white wine because it's never quite cold enough. Two of these metals 'ice cubes' really do the trick.
