This is a glass my mother in law just loves. She only has two, and has been scouring the internet for more. She has no idea who makes it, and no idea of the pattern name. There's no information on the glass itself, either. I'd love to purchase some more of these for her as a Christmas gift. Any info would be appreciated!

It looks like one of the first Anchor Hocking sets but I can't be sure. I will keep my eyes open!

Karla, you won't believe this..I have 4 of the size pictured, and 2 of the "on the rocks" or 8oz. in my cupboard. e-mail me your address, and I will send them to you. I bought them for myself years ago, and this is what I have left. Just bought a new set of glasses. They probably are Anchor Hocking.

Could be Libbey. I don't see a mark on the glass. And, I don't remember where I picked them up years ago. However, they are nice and heavy.

So cool the way this worked out so quickly!
For future reference, if you want to know the name of the pattern, you could email those pictures to Replacements Ltd. They have a free pattern identification service.

It's beyond cool how this worked out for Megan, isn't it? Wow. Just thought I'd mention that the eBay glasses are described as "cut glass" but I think they are pressed glass. If they are from the 1950s or before, they might have a lot of lead content. They sure are pretty, though. They remind me a little bit of a style we used to call "buttermilk glasses." |
