There are mass-produced vintage finds, and then there are the intentional pieces that truly earn their place in a curated space. These classic Mid-Century Modern double old-fashioned glasses belong firmly in the latter category.
Featuring a highly sought-after aesthetic from the 1950s and 60s, each glass is detailed with striking horizontal metallic banding—four delicate gold lines at the rim balanced by three thicker bands anchoring the base.
What sets these apart is the craftsmanship. A turn of the glass reveals a recessed pontil scar on the bottom, the undeniable mark of hand-blown glass. Unlike the smooth, embossed bottoms of automated, everyday machine glass, these blanks were individually mouth-blown and hand-finished before the 22k gold leaf bands were applied. Reminiscent of premium mid-century decorators like Vitreon Queen's Lusterware or Georges Briard, these glasses bring an authentic, layered history to your bar cart.
Bold, timeless, and perfectly crafted for an evening pour, they are exactly the kind of find we look for when slow-picking for a home with a soul.
The Details:
• Style: Mid-Century Modern Double Old-Fashioned / Rocks Glasses
• Material: Hand-Blown Glass with 22k Gold Leaf Banding
• Dimensions: 4" H x 4" W

Care Instructions:
Because these feature authentic metallic leaf detailing, please treat them with care. Strictly hand-wash only with mild soap and a soft sponge to preserve the gold banding for decades to come. Never place them in a dishwasher or microwave.
