A lovely Bamboo-etched set by West Virginia Glass Co. It was tough to capture in photos but this pink glassware set is etched with Bamboo stalks (see photos #4, #7, and #8) -- we attempted to zoom in on the etched pattern). This set includes a pitcher and 6 glasses, all etched with a Bamboo design. The photos don't do this set justice. Truly a stunning one.
7 pieces total: 1 pitcher + 6 glasses
A bit about this vintage glassware manufacturer: West Virginia Glass Specialty Company (WVGS) was based in Weston, West Virginia and created some of the most stunning glassware from 1929-1987 and was especially well-known for their hand-blown glass. In the 1950s and 60s, WVGS created a number of heavily embossed and/or Hollywood Regency style patterns that, similar to Culver, contained real 22k gold in the paint. They also did a number of colored glassware sets (pink glass, purple glass, blue glass). These glasses do not bare a permanent hallmark but came with a gold foil sticker that said "West Virginia Glass Company" that was typically removed by the buyer after purchase.
Hallmarks: None
Measurements: The glasses measure 4" tall x 2 1/2" in diameter; the pitcher measures 9 1/2" tall
Condition: Good vintage condition with mild signs of age/general surface wear. No chips or nicks. There's mild surface wear (which can include micro tiny scratches in some areas when looking at the glass up close). Also, please note: there are a few micro tiny air bubbles in some of the glasses. Purely the nature of vintage glassware. They are very, very tiny. In short, this set is in good vintage condition with mild signs of age/general surface wear. This set displays beautifully. Cheers!
**On shipping: We take our packaging very seriously and carefully wrap all pieces to ensure safe delivery. Please note: we're not making a penny on shipping. This set is very heavy in weight and will be packed well to ensure safe arrival!
>> We've recently added a cheaper shipping option (USPS Parcel Select Ground) as we know shipping costs have increased quite a bit! Please note that the Ground shipping will take up to twice as long to arrive (5-8 business days) than Priority Mail (2-5 business days). If you need your order quickly, please select Priority. Cheers!
****Important to note pre-purchase: Buyers, please examine all photos carefully as we cannot accept returns due to the fragile nature (the possibility of breakage when being shipped back) of our vintage/antique pieces. Our items are true vintage pieces that might have manufacturers flaws, flaws from age, or imperfections in general from being vintage. We try to explain the condition/description in an accurate and thorough manner but we ask that you please examine all photos carefully and ask all questions before purchasing an item as we are unable to accept returns due to the risk of breakage. Cheers!
>>> IMPORTANT UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS/PROOF OF ORDER ACCURACY & SHIPMENT: on orders with MULTIPLE pieces please note that if your order has more than one item/piece in it (so multiple pieces such as a set of jiggers, cocktail picks, tags, Julep cups, combined shipping orders, etc.) please take care to thoroughly empty the box and unpack ALL pieces which may be hidden in tissue paper, bubble wrap, peanuts, etc. We cannot be responsible if you accidentally throw one of your items away! We WILL be able to confirm with 100% certainty that we shipped ALL pieces in your order as we photograph/document ALL PIECES in the box it ships in along with the buyer’s order receipt, shipping label, and tracking number (in case we need to verify that all pieces were shipped once the package has been received). Thank you for shopping with us and cheers!.
