I found an interesting set of six glasses at the thrift store.    I am especially drawn to the fairies!  The second section appears to have a genie on a magic carpet, and the third section looks like a magician or sorcerer.  Culver makes these and I know they made a lot of other barware too.

These glasses have a mystical magical feel to them, so they’ll be hard to part with.  I know I need to sell them on my Ebay account, but I’m seriously considering keeping them.  I think they would be great for a party–or just lemonade or iced tea!  Oh my gosh, why do I love retro glass and dinnerware so much?

  1. How much were you looking for these?

  2. Edmund Dulac’s illustrations from The Nightingale must have been the inspiration. I love culver glass, but I have never seen these…magical.
