*Waterford Crystal is a luxury crystal manufacturer based in Waterford, Ireland. It is one of the most famous crystal brands in the world, known for its high quality and intricate designs. The company was founded in 1783 by George and William Penrose. The Penrose brothers were originally from England, but they moved to Ireland to start their glassmaking business. They chose Waterford because of the abundance of sand and water, which are essential ingredients in glassmaking. Waterford Crystal quickly became known for its high quality and craftsmanship. The company's pieces were often decorated with intricate designs, such as flowers, animals, and landscapes. Waterford Crystal was also known for its innovative designs, such as the Lismore pattern, which was introduced in 1845. Waterford Crystal experienced a period of decline in the early 20th century. However, the company was revived in the 1950s and 1960s, thanks to the efforts of new management and a renewed focus on quality. Today, Waterford Crystal is one of the most popular luxury crystal brands in the world. Its products are sold in over 100 countries. less
