Riedel Cleaning Beads


These tiny stainless steel beads remove dirt, residue, sediment, and superficial stains from inside the decanter.

Simply fill the vessel with water, add the beads and swirl.

When you're finished, carefully empty the contents into a mesh strainer, rinse the pellets, and dry them.

If dried and stored correctly, the beads can be used many times.

This pack contains a single piece.


Caring for your RIEDEL Crystal

RIEDEL glasses are dishwasher safe.

  • To avoid stains: use soft water (low mineral content)
  • To avoid scratches: Avoid glass contact with other glass or metal
  • To remove stains: use white vinegar
  • If available use a stemware rack

If washing by hand

  • Wash the glass under warm water (use detergent and rinse the glass carefully)
  • Glass polishing: Use two polishing cloths, never hold the glass by the base to polish the bowl
  • Stem snap: Occurs through mishandling = torque or bend pressure at the stem
  • Storage: Avoid glass storage in kitchen cabinets which have strong aromas that translates into glass

Microfiber Polishing Cloth

  • Wash at boiling temperature (to kill bacteria) with odorless soap
  • Should be machine washed at min. 170° F/75° C
  • Never use fabric softener when rinsing your microfiber polishing cloth (avoids grease film on surface)
