If you have been … more This stunning mid-century set of silver glasses, silver ice bucket, and two decanters is simply beautiful. If you have been looking for a set that Mad Men and Don Draper made popular again, this is it. We have never seen a set that has included decanters, glasses, and an ice bucket -- all comfortably seated in their individual spaces in an elegant case that makes the set easily moved. This silver ombre set with its brilliant silver fade design is a classic example that is likely a creation by Queen's Lusterware (or Lustreware in England). Importantly, some misattribute such silver ombre designs to Dorothy Thorpe, a fine designer from the same era. While she did not use the fade ombre effect, Queen's designer Sidney Sigety did -- with astonishing and coveted results. Queen's Lusterware is a mid-century modern barware essential.

The decanters are 9.25" tall, with a base of 4" by 3.5". The glasses are either 3.25" tall with 3" diameter, or 5.5" tall with 3" diameter. The ice bucket is 5" tall, and 6" diameter. less
