Holiday Gift Guide – Day 10 – Mid-Century Glass Pitcher Sets


#6714 Pitcher & #418L Tumblers– Tangerine – Blenko Glass – 1967

Functional, decorative, elegant, and sometimes even funky – pitcher and glass sets from the mid-20th Century are a great addition to any home. For ice tea, lemonade, sangria or maybe even a Zombie, these sets demonstrate a grace and charm often long lost today.


Black and Gold Polka-Dot Pitcher & Glass Set– Fred Press – circa 1965

Made by a number of makers, many from West Virginia, these sets are available in a wide variety styles and designs. Obviously we have focused on the more modern designs here but if hunting scenes or birds are more the taste of your gift recipient those designs are also around.


Ring Pitcher & Glass Set – Dunbar Glass Company – circa 1930’s


Pitcher & Glass Set – West Virginia Glass – circa 1959


Chartreuse and Purple Circle Pitcher & Glass Set – Federal Glass – circa 1955

A great Holiday gift, especially if accompanied by a favorite beverage, these sets can be had for $60 up to $200 for rarer designs and makers. As with all glass be alert for chips,  discoloration or other damage.

Any of these sets will put a smile on their face this Holiday season and will be even more appreciated months down the road when you are together sharing a cold drink and a laugh.
