These four drinking glass were made circa 1982 by Indiana Glass. They were based on the Madrid Pattern made by Federal Glass in the 1930s although federal never made a piece like this. These are larger than the tumblers seen from the 1930s at 6 1/4" tall. Also they are heavy for their size.
Anyway I saw this same sort of glass for $35 each at one antique mall and then saw these for $9 each at another so I bought four. Looks like I made on OK buy. They di have a great pattern even though they are not actual depression glass.
Yes I posted one picture sideways because it fits the screen better.
Its wonderful!!!
Nice collection!
Thank you very much Weirdpuckett. They had four more but what I really want are the glasses this size in Anchor Hocking Diamond line to match my pitcher. These do have a great pattern though. It is Madrid plus.
Thank you very much Virgina.vintage
Thank you very much Jewels.
Thank you valentine valentino97. I do like to have usable pieces. The riginal pieces do seem a bit small and fragile.
Thank you very much CinbB. They do have a bit of wear and will probably get a bit more.
Yeah I like to use my antiques or at least make it look like I use them. All my dishes are depression glass and that is what I use.
Thank you Vintagefran
I try and use my old flint tumblers, and goblets, decanters, but only hand wash them, nice soapy water.
Thank you very much rockbat. No dishwasher for me.
