VINTAGE SET OF 6 BEAUTIFUL TIFFIN-FRANCISCAN FOOTED WATER GOBLETS IN THE MADEIRA PATTERN - CITRON GREEN COLOR
These vintage 1970's Tiffin Franciscan footed glass goblets are in the Madeira pattern.
They are made of lead crystal.
They are the lighter green version of these glasses - the Citron Green, a very retro look.
These pattern was discontinued and were only produced between 1971 and 1978.
They feature a thick, heavy, text...ured, quality made, durable glass with a sturdy stem that makes the glass very comfortable to hold.
Each of these glasses weights over a pound, they were made to last, with a heavy solid leaf base that Madeira is so well known for.
They are a wonderful accent for your bar or table setting.
The Madeira pattern was introduced in seven colors (Olive, Smoke, Citron, Cornsilk, Ice, Plum and Blue) which complimented the Franciscan Pottery and coordinated with the Franciscan earthenware patterns.
These casual, hand-molded crystal patterns were said to be a reflection of the evolving "California life style" in the late '60s and '70s. People say they even glow under a blacklight.
They measure 5 1/2" tall, 3" in diameter, 4" deep, 2 1/2" base, and weights just shy of 1.2 lbs. each.
They were made in the USA.
They are in excellent condition.
