Carafes & Pitchers at Glassware UK
Glass carafes and pitchers for serving water, juice, wine and jugs of cocktails at home, in restaurants and in bars. Choose from classic water carafes, wine carafes and large pitchers for parties and summer drinks.
How to choose carafes and pitchers
A carafe is ideal for serving water or house wine at the table, while a jug or pitcher with a handle is easier to pour for juices, lemonade, Pimm's and sangria. Choose 0.5 to 1 litre for the dining table and larger 1.2 to 2 litre jugs for parties and barbecues.
Our range includes Bormioli Rocco carafes such as the Ypsilon and Misura, handmade Krosno wine carafes and recycled-glass jugs. Pair a carafe with our water glasses or wine glasses.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a carafe and a decanter?
A carafe is a simple serving vessel for water or wine, while a decanter is designed to aerate wine or display spirits, often with a wider base or a stopper.
What size carafe do I need?
A 1 litre carafe serves around four glasses of water or wine. A 0.5 to 0.6 litre carafe is perfect for two people.
Are carafes and pitchers dishwasher safe?
Many of our carafes and pitchers are dishwasher safe, and the care details are listed on each product page. For crystal, cut, gold-rimmed or decorated pieces we recommend hand washing in warm, soapy water.
Can carafes and pitchers be personalised?
Many of our carafes and pitchers can be personalised with engraving – look for the personalisation option on the product page. Personalised orders are usually turned around in 1–4 working days depending on the option you choose, and same-day turnaround is available.
