Vintage Waterford Signed Lismore Cut Crystal 5 1/8 inch 2 ounce Sherry Glasses - Retired Style - Set of 4

Established in 1783, Waterford crystal is cherished around the
world for its rich tradition of craftsmanship and artistry. Each
piece, from stemware to decorative items, is still mouth blown
and handcrafted by master artisans. Waterford crystal is a
customary gift to royalty and heads of state and a treasured
heirloom for generations.

The Lismore Collection was launched in 1952 and now, over 66
years later, it is the only design from this period that still remains.
Of all of Waterford Crystal's cuts, Lismore is the most loved,
continuing to add grace and beauty to any home.

The inspiration behind the elegant collection is Lismore Castle in
the village of Lismore, Co. Waterford Ireland. The Castle is perched
spectacularly on a cliff high above the River Backwater near the
Knockmealdown Mountains. It has passed through many owners
and endured many wars; been the seat of archbishops, a home of
Sir Walter Raleigh and to the Earl of Cork. For centuries now it has
been in the possession of the Dukes of Devonshire.

The leaded windows and turrets of this picturesque Castle have order
been recreated in the cutting pattern. A classic crystal that has
simple cuts and balanced beauty as fresh today as they were
when they were first inspired. It is the combination of wedge
cuts and open plain diamond cutting which has become
synonymous with the Lismore Collection.

The sherry glasses listed here have been retired.
