What is a cordial set?
1 Answer
A cordial set refers to a grouping of glasses that are small, stemmed glasses, perfect for serving cocktails at parties or small gatherings. These glasses are typically designed to hold a small amount of cordial — a liqueur flavored with a fruit or spice (in the UK, a cordial might be non-alcoholic). This set will be an excellent addition to your glassware collection. Find a collection of antique and vintage cordial glass sets on 1stDibs today.
