About the Maker 
Culver Glass Company, founded in 1939 by Irving Rothenberg in Brooklyn, New York, became renowned for its luxurious glassware featuring 22-karat gold. To apply the gold patterns and textures the company used a secret, patented high-heat roll-on process. Culver's iconic designs, from gilded mushrooms, owls, cats, Egyptian and Asian inspired design themes, scrolling leaf patterns and holiday designs, rose in popularity during the mid-20th century. Out of production for decades, Culver glassware is a highly desirable collectable today. It's a special treat to serve guests drinks in this glassware.
