Six "Grape" Colored Crystal Goblets

Luxurious and highly stylish, a Set of six "Creme Cups" or champagne glasses, colored overlay crystal, 100% handmade, from the famous "Traube - Grape" series. Produced by the world-renowned German manufactory NACHTMANN, dating back to the 1970s. The NACHTMANN factory was founded in Bavaria in 1834 by Michael Nachtmann. At the beginning of the 20th century, the factory's workshops moved to Neustadt, where they remain today. In the 1960s and 1970s, NACHTMANN became the largest producer of top-quality crystal in Germany. The NACHTMANN concern for a long time united several subsidiary enterprises: "Marc Aurel", "Katharinen Hutte", "Spiegelau". The products of these factories differed in design and in the minimization of lead oxide content in the crystal. In the early 2000s, the product range became significantly poorer. The factory shifted to more economical forms, and interesting items disappeared one by one. In 2004, NACHTMANN Crystal AG shares were bought out by Riedel Glas. Although the factory operates to this day, it has been unable to return to producing the items it released during its peak period. So now, any of its products from the 1960s and 1970s, especially those of high craftsmanship and preservation, have automatically become items of special interest for collectors and connoisseurs of crystal, and the value of such items only increases every year.
