We’re still in the midst of wedding season, and with two months of nuptials ahead of us, our attention remains locked on the meaningful gestures that persevere long after the big day has passed. At Grant Macdonald London, we believe that the finest gifts should not only be beautiful, but useful - crafted for daily enjoyment and worthy of becoming future heirlooms. Few things embody that philosophy more than our Paragon Collection, where form, function and fine craftsmanship come together around the table.
The Paragon Wine Glasses
For a couple who loves to entertain, the Paragon Wine Glasses make a superb choice. Each glass is hand-blown and engraved in Somerset using traditional British techniques, with 24% lead oxide added to the glass to produce that unmistakable sparkle.
Available for red wine or white wine, the shape of our Paragon Wine Glasses goes beyond aesthetic. The bowl curves inward to concentrate aroma, allowing the true character of the wine to shine. Each glass has been blown into a custom mould, cut and polished by hand, and frosted for a contemporary take on classic design.
The Paragon Bar Set
The Paragon Bar Set was designed to bring a sense of occasion to any dining room. The set includes two hand-cut crystal tumblers - with that same 24% lead oxide for added sparkle - designed to offer a pleasing weight in the hand, flanking a solid crystal decanter. The decanter is crowned with a sterling silver stopper, hallmarked in London, and a testament to the fusion of heritage silversmithing and modern technology that defines Grant Macdonald London.
Every element of the bar set has been considered with care - from the brilliance of the crystal to the intricate finishing of the silver. It's the perfect gift for newlyweds, hosts, or for anyone who appreciates a good, stiff drink.
The Paragon Silver Champagne Flutes
There are few rituals more iconic than raising a glass of champagne. At Grant Macdonald London, we’ve distilled that sentiment into an extraordinary pair of Paragon Silver Champagne Flutes. Cast in sterling silver, the interior of each glass is plated in 24ct gold - not only to enhance the warmth of the champagne itself, but to ensure the flavour remains pure.
Beneath the beauty, you’ll find a complex lattice of engineering precision. The base of each flute features an open-worked design, brought to life through advanced CAD modelling and rapid prototyping. This fusion of design innovation and traditional craftsmanship creates a piece that’s both contemporary and timeless - a pair that promises many celebrations to come.
At Grant Macdonald London, every piece we make is rooted in the British heritage of silversmithing, elevated by craftsmanship, and designed to last generations. For those marking the start of a shared life - or honouring a love that endures - nothing speaks louder than a gift created with intention and extraordinary care.
