Description
Elegant Marquis by Waterford Brookside crystalline wine glasses. These glasses feature a classic cross-hatch (diamond) cut pattern on the bowl base and a multi-faceted geometric stem. Perfect for red or white wine, these glasses provide heavy-duty durability without sacrificing the classic Waterford aesthetic. Measuring approximately 7.5 to 8 inches tall.
Key Features
Waterford sub-branding carries high name recognition; Brookside is a popular replacement pattern for those looking to complete sets; timeless diamond cut design creates beautiful light refraction; dishwasher safe crystalline material.
Authenticity Indicators
Look for a laser-etched 'Marquis by Waterford' mark on the base of the foot. Unlike lead crystal, these will feel slightly lighter. High confidence in pattern identification.
Flaws to Note
No visible chips; check the rim carefully with a fingernail for micro-nicks. Crystalline is more prone to 'clouding' if washed with harsh detergents, but these appear clear.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (best for pattern seekers), Etsy (if marketed as vintage/elegant), or Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping risks with breakables).
Selling Tips
Always use 'Double Box' shipping methods for glassware. Keywords: Waterford Marquis, Brookside, Diamond Cut, Stemware, Wine Goblets. Take photos against a dark background to highlight the facet cuts. Sell as a set rather than individually to maximize profit-to-shipping ratio.
