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.

Antique Traditional German Lidded Glass Jug Beer Stein Pewter Porcelain
Located in Greven, DE
Antique Traditional German Lidded Glass Jug Beer Stein Pewter Porcelain German Glass, Pewter, Porcelain Late 19th Century Dimensions: H x D: 18cm x 14cm Crafted in the late 19th century, this German beer stein exemplifies the enduring tradition of the classic drinking vessel. Beer steins originated in 14th century Germany, when new sanitation laws required beverage containers to have lids to prevent contamination. This led to the creation of the lidded stoneware mug with a thumb lever for ease of use, eventually known as the beer stein. From the 16th to the 18th centuries, German artisans refined the craft, producing beautifully decorated examples made from stoneware, pewter, glass and porcelain. By the 19th century, beer steins had become both practical drinking vessels and artistic expressions of German culture, often featuring intricate reliefs and regional or historical themes. Their popularity spread throughout Europe, reflecting not only the rich brewing traditions but also the artistry and craftsmanship of the era. The present example features a glass body adorned with circular cut facets throughout. Its bulbous handle provides a comfortable grip and is topped with a pewter lid. The lid’s porcelain plaque displays a transfer-printed scene depicting a man standing on the edge of a cliff with a rifle, gazing towards his hunted prey. Scenes such as this were popular at the time, emphasizing German pride and the fine craftsmanship for which these steins became renowned. The thumb lever, cast in the form of a mask surrounded by scrolling motifs, is generously sized to make lifting the lid effortless. With its intricate porcelain plaque and finely faceted glass body, this antique stein...
