Description

Russel Wright Eclipse Cocktail Set in Near Perfect Condition!

The Russel Wright Eclipse Pattern was licensed to Bartlett Collins Glass Co. and produced in 1958. Russel Wright (b.1904-d.1976), was an American Designer and a major force in the Mid-20th Century modern decor era.

The original 1959 Eclipse pattern depicts multiple modernist eclipses and came in blue, flamingo, yellow and green, and all had gold moons. Later 1970 reissues in this pattern did not have applied gold moons.

It is hard to find these once very popular, and now very popular, vintage modernist bar glasses in good condition. We were pleased to see this set has very little wear. The gold rims range from 100% to only 10% on one tumbler (expected). The decor is in near perfect to perfect condition. Gold moons show very little wear.  No chips, cracks or discoloring. Colors still bright, glass still shiny.

Fabulous mid-century modern design by Russel Wright, hard to find and in wonderful condition. Set includes (1) Ice Bucket, 6.5″ round, 4″ tall and (6!) 4.25″ tall double hi-balls.
