The pattern Lismore has been in production on wine glasses from 1968, but only a very few were made in the early to middle 70's. Each glass is a 'beautiful, individual work of art'. Each glass is hand made, individually (not machine made - so no two can be exactly the same);Acid-Etched/Stamped with the early Celtic-Old English/Gothic Script Trademark "Waterford", not with the later, newer, trademark logo, 'brocade' (block letter/non-script) style signature, or the newer seahorse logo, as in use after 1990. More difficult to see on some than on others - and fainter signatures are more difficult to photograph - see photos (acid-etched stamps located on the underside of the foot); Blue & White presentation box, original early-Waterford, with lettering in Blue Celtic-Olde English/Gothic-style script, & the original two Waterford trademark logos, a teardrop-shaped crystal, and the SHAMROCK & CROWN - see photos (not the later grey box, and not with the later seahorse trademark logo); *Note, this is NOT a label - the box itself is printed blue and white. ** No UPC/bar-code on box (UPC & bar-codes did not exist whethi is n this was made) Authentic Vintage Waterford, Hand Made in Ireland; NOT a Reproduction or Copy; NOT made in Europe, (as were/are later pieces - at factories in Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, and Slovenia).**Waterford NEVER sold 'seconds' - each piece was always first quality - any piece that did not meet that standard was always broken and the parts returned for melting down and future re-use. Measurements: Approx. 5.75" tall overall x 3" across at widest point (across top opening); Diameter across foot: approx. 2-9/16" Original Box: Approx. 9" x 6.75" x 6"Original Insert: Approx 6" x 5" (folded approx 3" x 5")Current retail - $105 per glassAuthentic - Full Lead Irish Crystal - Heavy - see shipping notes belowCaring for Waterford Crystal: Hand wash - 'one piece of crystal at a time'From original insert (included): "Wash carefully, one piece at a time; Fine rims and stems need special care - do not dry or store upside down.
