Sandwich glass wine goblet set of two in like-new condition.
Beautiful intricate Sandwich glass pattern evolving since the late 1800’s, first introduced by a glass-maker in the town of Sandwich by a company called Boston & Sandwich Glass Company, Massachusetts. The pattern is often referred to as Lacy Glass because the many detailed Sandwich patterns of the late 1800’s resembled lace.
A few glass makers have reproduced the flower and scroll with the dotted raised background since it was first introduced. They are Anchor Hocking, Duncan and Miller, Westmoreland, Indiana, and Tiara (distributor).
Duncan Miller, Westmoreland (which called the pattern “Princess Feather”) and Indiana Glass offered this Sandwich glass pattern from the 1920’s through the late 1950’s. Anchor Hocking produced the pattern from the early 1940’s to 1964.
From the 1970 to 1998, Tiara Exclusives offered the Sandwich pattern using Indiana’s molds. Tiara was a glass distributor owned by Lancaster Colony, which also owned Indiana Glass. Tiara marketed the glass through “housewife parties”, just like Tupperware did.
This pristine set of Sandwich glass wine goblets was made by Indiana Glass and distributed by Tiara. Circa 1980’s. They are made with heavy, great quality vintage glass. Very durable and dishwasher safe.
Lovely as a gift with a fine bottle of wine to share with your beloved.
