Timeless Crystalware for Every Table

At Veritable, crystalware is more than just tableware — it is about creating moments that are treasured and remembered. Our collection was born from a love of fine food and drink, and the joy of sharing them with family and friends. Whether it’s a Sunday roast, an anniversary toast, or simply a quiet weekday supper, the right tableware adds a sense of care and attention that makes each occasion special.

Craftmanship

Each piece is hand-crafted by skilled artisans using traditional techniques, designed to last and be enjoyed for generations. Our timeless designs are chosen to be loved equally by grandparents and grandchildren.

As William Morris said: 'Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.'

Appeal

Crystal has been prized for centuries for its clarity, strength, and sparkle. The high mineral content allows for fine walls and thin rims, perfect for wine glasses, and enhances the natural brilliance of the glass. The soft bell-like chime when glasses meet is a joyful reminder of care, quality, and tradition. These are not just vessels, but pieces to enjoy with all the senses — sight, touch, even sound.

Authenticity

The name Veritable comes from the Latin for 'true', reflecting our commitment to authenticity, beauty and practicality.

Our crystalware is the finishing touch that brings true pleasure to everyday dining, making even simple meals feel considered and complete.

To us, dining is about taking a moment to slow down, taking pride in how it is served.

Gifting

Veritable is about treating yourself and your loved ones.

It is all about Dining Well.

Ian Norrington specialises in beautifully handcrafted seal engraved signet rings and engraved cuff links. He is a liveryman of the prestigious Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. A detailed coloured brochure with prices is available on request.

In addition to gold signet rings, Ian is also able to supply signet rings set with a semi-precious stones, such as bloodstone (dark green with red flecks), carnelian (dark red), onyx (black) or lapis lazuli (blue). A first-class engraving service is on offer as well.

Signet rings are generally seal engraved whereby a family crest or coat of arms is engraved on the surface of the ring in the negative — the wax impression comes out in the positive. They can also be surface engraved in the positive with initials and dates engraved under the head. Surface engraving is ideal for cufflinks.

Ian can supply gold oval (18 x 13 millimetre) chain-linked cufflinks in either 18 carat or 9 carat in yellow gold, white gold and silver. He is happy to quote for engraved, or un-engraved, eighteen or nine carat gold cufflinks and can advise on re-engraving old or worn signet rings.

Double Chocolate Brownie 

A rich yet gooey chocolate brownie made with a base of dark chocolate scattered generously with milk chocolate chips.

A box of six brownies contains a quarter of a kilo of chocolate within it.

Salted Caramel Brownie

How do you make the double chocolate brownie better? Simple - you top with generous swirls of homemade salted caramel then sprinkle with Anglesey sea salt.

This leads to a cracked effect after cooking.

Blondie

A dense butterscotch flavoured blondie that is rich, gooey and buttery. Made with vanilla and brown sugar instead of dark chocolate they also contain a healthy sprinkling of white chocolate chips. If you are looking to step away from milk and dark chocolate but still craving something sweet and chocolatey these will really hit the spot.

Chocolate Orange Brownie

A rich yet gooey chocolate brownie made with a base of dark chocolate infused with a hint of orange and scattered generously throughout with a mixture of milk chocolate chips and pieces of Terry's Chocolate Orange.

After Eight Brownie

The perfect after dinner brownie! A rich yet gooey chocolate brownie made with a base of dark chocolate infused with a hint of mint and scattered generously throughout with milk chocolate chips. Each brownie is then topped with an After Eight.

Gluten Free Double Chocolate Brownie

Just as perfect as the original but this time it's gluten free. It's still rich yet gooey. This chocolate brownie is made with a base of dark chocolate scattered generously with milk chocolate chips.

Vegan Double Chocolate Chip Brownie (dairy, gluten and nut free)

This deliciously moist and gooey vegan brownie are just perfect. Made with two types of dairy free chocolate, they are filled with heaps of dairy free chocolate drops. This will satisfy every vegans sweet craving.
