Six Imperial Provincial Honeycomb Glass Tall Tumblers
Set of six beautiful deep honey amber tumbler set. Hand-made with a 3-part mold. Thick walled glass with weighted bases. Each tumbler weighs 1.3 lbs. Made in the 1930’s -1940’s by Imperial Glass, USA. Pattern was called ‘Provencial’.
Quality glass made for everyday use. These sturdy tumblers have ½” solid glass bases which reduce tipping over. Beautiful pattern called Honeycomb consists of inverted tiled hexagons which look fantastic and provide for a good grip. The seat of the base has a ‘polished’ flat outer ring that has been hand-beveled on the edges. Rims are heat finished.
They measure 6″ tall with a 3.25″ wide mouth (large ice-tea size). There are NO chips, chiggers or cracks. Two tumblers have very slight liquid staining on the inside. The water stain can only be seen if you know it’s there.
Under blacklight, they reflect points of purple indicating crystal. Lovely color goes well with any table setting. Beautiful glasses made in the days when quality, even for everyday glassware, was the norm. Great glasses for the bar too.
