Blimey Lee, I'd be frightened to get the Waterford ones out I've got some Waterford glass ornaments that mam got from peeps at work when she retired and I'm almost frightened to handle them to clean them
I've got Edinburgh Crystal ones (wedding present) - they've been up the loft for 30 years because we're too frightened to use them.
In all honesty i think you should use them and enjoy them. I don't believe in stashing things away because they're valuable. Get them out ............if you only use them on special occasions OK - but you really should use them and enjoy them IMO.
If they get broken c'est la vie..................far better than being in a dark dust attic and then your kids use/abuse them when you're gone!
GET EM OUT!
