This is a gorgeous vintage set of 6 Culver Valencia old fashioned glasses (I have 2 identical set of these) . The glasses have a beautiful 22K gold design with light green diamonds in the design. Near MINT condition. NO chips, cracks, flea bites or loss of gold or color. These came from an estate where they must have been used only as display items. I can find no wear on them. The look like they just came out of the box. They measures 3 ½” tall and 3” wide. They hold 10 oz. A little history: Valencia was the most popular pattern Culver produced. These are from the 1960’s. This vintage glass is getting hard to find in very good or excellent condition (too many people have put it in their dishwashers over the years, unfortunately). Not all pieces are “signed” with the Culver. I’ve observed that pieces from the 1950s and/or ‘60s seem more likely to be signed, whereas more recent pieces were marked mostly with the paper labels, if not marked with more modern copyright signatures.
Culver was founded in Brooklyn, New York in 1939 by Irving Rothenberg. In 1980, the company moved to downtown Rahway, New Jersey because Brooklyn gradually became too dangerous within which to operate. Known for lavish designs, many embellished with 22-karat gold, the company gained notoriety and its products became highly collectible. Mark “Mickey” Rothenberg took over the company in 1987 after his father, Irving, passed away. He ran the company until he sold it in 1996 to Moderne Glass Company, Inc. He then headed another glass company until his death on 9/11 - he was one of the passengers on the hijacked Newark-to-San-Francisco flight that crashed in Pennsylvania.
