The Rainbow Art Glass Co. was established in Huntington, West Virginia in 1954. In 1973 they were purchased as a subsidiary by Viking Glass. The factory burned in 1983 and Rainbow Art Glass ceased operations forever.

Rainbow’s glass forms were often hand blown and came in a range of vibrant colors and wild designs popular at the time. Collectors search for Rainbow decanters, figurines and crackle glass.

Rainbow glass can sometimes be identified by the distinct styles of their stoppers, flat collar bottlenecks, and lined impressions on the pontil mark
