Here is a link to Riedel glasses

riedelcrystal.com. they state that they are leaded...

The finest quality machine-blown glass in lead crystal, thin-walled, well-balanced and yet robust, Vinum offers the right instrument for many an enjoyable sip.

And reading in a wine catalog i have here, they state they are crafted in Austria from 24% lead crystal....

However, I noticed that their Overture series was lead free. Hope this helps.

Dear Chaz, Sorry if you felt I was insinuating that this was a boring subject. Lead poisoning from glassware was a true hazard but I believe it has been recognized and steps taken to avoid this. Perhaps we can broach this question to the Wine Spectator forum.
Thanks, MF
