Description
Vintage Libbey Wexford pattern coupe glass, perfect for champagne, cocktails, or as a sherbet/dessert dish. This iconic mid-century glassware features a distinctive pressed glass design with a textured diamond pattern band near the top and a tiered, ribbed stem. Its heavy weight and classic silhouette make it a staple for vintage-inspired barware collections. Measures approximately 4.5 inches tall.
Key Features
Highly recognizable pattern (Wexford), sturdy construction less prone to breakage than fine crystal, versatile use for 'vintage cocktail' trends, very popular for wedding rentals and styling.
Authenticity Indicators
Libbey Wexford is unsigned; however, the specific combination of the ringed stem and the diamond/dot pattern is proprietary. High confidence based on pattern matching.
Flaws to Note
Check for 'flea bites' (tiny nicks) along the faceted edges of the diamond pattern and the rim. Look for hard water mineral deposits or 'cloudiness' if it was washed in a dishwasher frequently.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (best for vintage glass collectors), eBay (best for selling as a set), or Facebook Marketplace (best if you have a large set to avoid shipping risks).
Selling Tips
Photograph against a dark or colored background to make the pressed glass pattern 'pop.' Use keywords like 'Mid-Century Modern,' 'MCM,' 'Barware,' and 'Hollywood Regency.' If selling a single glass, target buyers looking to complete a broken set.
