Delicate orchid etching and a ruffled edge — vintage glamour for the table.
A. H. Heisey, a German immigrant and trained glassblower, founded his namesake company in 1896 in Newark, Ohio, after gaining experience at Ripley and Company. Leadership passed to his son Wilson Heisey upon his death in 1922, and later to T. Clarence Heisey in 1942; at its peak, the company employed nearly 700 people. This creamer and sugar set carries the Orchid #507 etching, with a graceful ruffled border and the tiny Heisey "H in a triangle" mark on the base. Heisey closed its doors in December 1957, selling its assets to Imperial Glass Company, which continued producing some Heisey designs until its own bankruptcy in 1984.
A refined choice for a sophisticated table setting, and a lovely hostess or bridal shower gift — especially for anyone who loves orchids.
