Title: 1950s(?) Orrefors Cocktail Glasses w/ Labels
Post by: Pinkspoons on October 04, 2013, 05:00:15 PM

Recently acquired a set of six delicate cocktail glasses bearing old-style Orrefors labels.

They're fairly plain, but for the thick-ish bases which have small 'twists' around the sides. They're 60mm x 70mm (HxW).

Without a starting point, though, it's hard to pin them down in the hundreds of drinkware series that Orrefors have produced - so any help would be gratefully received.

Hi

This label was used on soda glass by Orrefors from 1920 until the late 1950's.

Thanks for the information - gives me a timescale to hunt within.
