Culver Imari Highball Glasses MCM Tumblers Set of 4 Gold VTG Cocktail Barware

Set of 4 Culver highball / tumbler glasses in their Imari pattern featuring applied 22K gold over burgandy and dark blue (imari colors.) This is a hard to find pattern. Asian inspired mid century modern design, these glasses are great for iced tea or your favorite beverage. The signature dates these from the late 70s/80s. Great gift for the vintage barware lover. Culver was in business from 1939 – 1996 in Brooklyn NY and created elegant cocktail glasses sold only in high end department stores of the era. They developed a super-heated, roll-on process of applying the gold which unfortunately died with the company. Size: approx 5.75″h x 2.75″w Condition*: Excellent, I also have rocks glasses from this set listed, they are slightly faded, these are not - see photos for comparison. If these were used at all it was seldom and I dont believe they have ever been run through the dishwasher (glasses with applied gold should always be hand washed btw.) Keats said "A thing of beauty is a joy forever". Each of us has a different idea of what "beauty" is. I find unique vintage items and offer them to you, the beholder. Have you found your thing of beauty?
