Vintage Green Glass Tumblers – Set of Five Textured Mid-Century Barware
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Vintage green glassware, mid-century barware, textured glass tumblers, and retro drinking glasses lead the search when collectors look for sculptural, statement tabletop pieces — and this striking set of five delivers all of that and more. Crafted in a richly pigmented olive-green hue, these geometric, footed tumblers feature a bold stacked-cube relief pattern that captures and refracts light beautifully, making them standout additions to any curated bar cart or dining tableau. These glasses feel luxuriously substantial in hand, with a pedestal base that elevates them (literally and stylistically). The architectural texture gives them a high-design presence — reminiscent of Italian modernist glass, Mid-Century Scandinavian design, and chic Hollywood Regency barware. Perfect for serving cocktails, iced tea, sparkling water, spritzes, or simply styling on open shelving, these tumblers instantly add a polished, collected, “old-money bar” vibe to any interior. Key Details Dimensions: Approx. 6" Tall x 3.5" Diameter Quantity: Set of 5 Color: Rich olive-green or avocado green Style: Mid-Century Modern / Retro Revival / Hollywood Regency Material: Pressed architectural glass Use: Everyday drinking, barware, open-shelf display, cocktail styling Condition: Excellent vintage condition with minimal signs of age, with a few flea bites to two of the pieces. Why You’ll Love Them: Dramatic geometric texture with an architectural presence Rare colorway that complements both vintage and contemporary interiors Ideal for bar carts, summer entertaining, or styling kitchen shelves Photographs beautifully for content and tablescapes A high-impact way to infuse color into a neutral space Styling Ideas: Pair with brass bar tools and a silver tray for a luxe mid-century bar look Style them alongside clear or amber glass for a tonal, collected shelf. (See our other listings for a set we have in the amber colorway. Serve herb-garnished cocktails to highlight the color and texture Display on a travertine bar, rattan bar cart, or dark wood credenza...

Antique and Vintage Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass

Your dining room table is a place where stories are shared and personalities shine — why not treat yourself and your guests to the finest antique and vintage glass, silver, ceramics and serveware for your meals?

Just like the people who sit around your table, your serveware has its own stories and will help you create new memories with your friends and loved ones. From ceramic pottery to glass vases, set your table with serving pieces that add even more personality, color and texture to your dining experience.

Invite serveware from around the world to join your table settings. For special occasions, dress up your plates with a striking Imari charger from 19th-century Japan or incorporate Richard Ginori’s Italian porcelain plates into your dining experience. Celebrate the English ritual of afternoon tea with a Japanese tea set and an antique Victorian kettle. No matter how big or small your dining area is, there is room for the stories of many cultures and varied histories, and there are plenty of ways to add pizzazz to your meals.

Add different textures and colors to your table with dinner plates and pitchers of ceramic and silver or a porcelain lidded tureen, a serving dish with side handles that is often used for soups. Although porcelain and ceramic are both made in a kiln, porcelain is made with more refined clay and is more durable than ceramic because it is denser. The latter is ideal for statement pieces — your tall mid-century modern ceramic vase is a guaranteed conversation starter. And while your earthenware or stoneware is maybe better suited to everyday lunches as opposed to the fine bone china you’ve reserved for a holiday meal, handcrafted studio pottery coffee mugs can still be a rich expression of your personal style.

“My motto is ‘Have fun with it,’” says author and celebrated hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran. “It’s yin and yang, high and low, Crate & Barrel with Christofle silver. I like to mix it up — sometimes in the dining room, sometimes on the kitchen banquette, sometimes in the loggia. It transports your guests and makes them feel more comfortable and relaxed.”

Introduce elegance at supper with silver, such as a platter from celebrated Massachusetts silversmith manufacturer Reed and Barton or a regal copper-finish flatware set designed by International Silver Company, another New England company that was incorporated in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1898. By then, Meriden had already earned the nickname “Silver City” for its position as a major hub of silver manufacturing.

At the bar, try a vintage wine cooler to keep bottles cool before serving or an Art Deco decanter and whiskey set for after-dinner drinks — there are many possibilities and no wrong answers for tableware, barware and serveware. Explore an expansive collection of antique and vintage glass, ceramics, silver and serveware today on 1stDibs.
