Hippie Hi-Ball Blown Tumbler Neckglass

Drink while you dance with this rock and roll tumbler necklace. From the 1970’s. Hand-blown hi-ball tumbler with long chain is worn as a necklace. It works well, we tried it. Won’t spill even if you bend over. Impossible to lose.

Probably made by Pilgrim Art Glass. Pilgrim ran advertisements in the early 1970’s with a beautiful long-haired Hippie woman-child dancing at a party with a tumbler necklace like this. We’ve also seen this novelty produced in the Scandinavian countries during the Swedish Modern craze of the mid 20th century.

It is in excellent condition. Hand-blown in amber glass with applied clear glass chain holders and solid metal (not plated) chain link in a silverish gold. The chain is in like-new condtion.

The tumbler is 5.75″ tall. Forty inches of chain. Measures 24″ long when worn as a necklace.
