American Brilliant Cut Whiskey Tumblers

Serve Your Aged Whiskey in 100 Year Old Glasses

These glasses date from the American Brilliant Cut Glass period (circa 1876–1917). The pattern, attributed to H.P. Sinclaire Jr., is known as Strawberry-Diamond and Fan, designed during his time at T.G. Hawkes & Company. Since this set lacks the T.G. Hawkes hallmark, it was likely produced by another prominent glassmaker of the era, such as Dorflinger & Sons, J. Hoare & Company, or Libbey Glass Company.

SUGGESTED USES:

• Sazerac
• Vieux Carré
• Whiskey Neat
• Whiskey Rocks
