I'm on a red theme lately!
I love these vintage martini glasses. They are one of the first items I bought when I started collecting. I don't have much information about them, so please share if you have anymore information. I'm not sure if they are technically Art Deco, but they are stylish!
The glasses are a bright cherry red, and I believe they are encased glass. I'm guessing they are circa 1940's-1950's and most likely are European made--possibly Bohemian or Czech glass. They are definitely larger than the vintage martini glasses of the 1930's, so I'm assuming they were made later than that time period. When I look at them, I always imagine Jackie O sipping a martini out of them on the deck of a yacht.
They also display great with my tall, Manning Bowman, Art Deco "Diana" cocktail shaker with the red stripes. The shaker is circa 1930's and made out of chrome and red enamel.
Fantastic glasses....the shaker too!
