This is a handy set of SIX vintage Edinburgh Crystal white wine glasses. Ideal for sipping sparkly summer wines out on the patio.
They are a match set of six but as they are hand engraved there is some difference on the star pattern on the foot - I have photographed each one for your inspection. Please look at these as they form part of my description.
They are in excellent condition with no damage. They are not signed on the base - but are definitely the attractive and modernist Symphony pattern. This pattern has vertical cuts, a slender smooth stem and to trim, as shown below. This design is a harder to find one - and is perhaps a more contemporary one.
They measure as follows: 7 1/4 inches in height. The rim has a diameter of 2 1/2 inches. The foot is 2 3/8 inches. When tapped they have a beautiful ring, which is a mark of quality.
I have taken lots of photographs for your inspection.
I have other glasses in this pattern listed online - please have a look at other ones on offer.
I am listing the set here at a very fair £15 each glass (plus a wee discount for the set). This takes into account the relative rarity of this pattern. It is certainly a fair one!
UK Postage will be with Royal Mail Recorded post. This will be £10 with Parcelforce24 - I will carefully pack up for you - so nothing gets broken in transit.
History: The Edinburgh and Leith Flint Glassworks was established in the 1860s at Leith Walk Glassworks and later at Norton Park in Edinburgh. In 1921 the glassworks became part of Webbs Crystal Glass Company.
In 1955, The Edinburgh and Leith Glassworks became Edinburgh Crystal, and the next decade saw further expansion and eventually the demolition of the old glassworks at Norton Park and new premises at Penicuik 10 miles south of Edinburgh.
Edinburgh Crystal went into administration in July 2006. Although the brand was taken over by the Waterford / Wedgwood Group the factory no longer exists and the brand is now discontinued.
