These are believed to be Indiana/Colony production based on their straight sides (only a slight flare at the top), two mold marks (vs. three on Tiffin), and their height of 3⅛ inches (vs. 3.0 inches for Tiffin).

The cranberry iridescent colorway is the most sought-after in the King's Crown line — perfect for a holiday table, a Valentine's dinner, or a bar cart that doesn't apologize for being beautiful. For the bar: a sophisticated, long-stemmed coupe for champagne, Daiquiris, Aviations, and other cocktails served up and well chilled. For the table: classic stemmed service for sorbet, ice cream sundaes, or a chilled fruit dessert, the way sherbets were meant to be used.

The pattern originated with Adams Glass Co. in the late 1800s, was widely copied, and was reintroduced by Indiana Glass as Line #77 in 1959. When Indiana Glass merged with Lancaster Glass Corporation in 1961, the pattern continued under the Colony brand as Colony Crown.
