Whiskey Neat Glasses, Javit Badash, Rain, Set of 8, Hand Cut Crystal, Vintage

• Pattern:  Rain (Discontinued)
• Made in USA
• Vintage: 1950's - 1960's (estimated)
• Details:  This is a very elegant set of Mid Century Modern whiskey glasses. They are most appropriate for serving whiskey "neat" (2 oz), they can also be used as double shot glasses (3 oz).  The pattern is called "Rain" and features several hand cut slash marks/lines on the sides of the glass.  The elegance is in their simplicity, the cuts simulate falling rain and that's all there is, beautiful, simple glass.  These were part of Javit's Victoria Park Crystal Collection of glasses, all with that Mid Century Modern glass design.  Although these for serving whiskey, they also make great dessert glasses and for after dinner liquors.  We priced it as a set of 8 glasses including shipping but will ship you 9 glasses total (we found one more after everything was set up and photographed).   Perfect set for today's minimalist style and of course for any Mid Century Modern styled home!  We also carry a set of Water Goblets in this pattern (can double as wine glasses too).

Javit Badash Inc. was founded by Jack Badash in 1945.  Jack started the company with only $1,800, his father's entire life savings.  Over the next 35 years, the business grew and he became known for his American made, hand-cut and machine-cut tumblers, stemware, gifts, and vases.  They had operations in Cumberland, MD and Jane Lew WV, and at it's peak, Javit was the largest U.S. firm producing hand-cut and machine cut glassware.  In 1980, Jack Badash sold the company and tried retirement, but his energy and creativity did not allow him to sit idle, so he started yet another company called Jack Badash Inc., today, we know it as "Badash Crystal".  This new company began with hand-cut tumblers and grew to include Russian crystal imports. In 1987 Jack’s son, Mark Badash, joined Badash Crystal.  Jack Badash passed away on April 2011, at the age of 92, his son Mark now runs the company.
