A stunning and rare set of 8 Mid-Century Libbey "Platinum Artica" glasses. These glasses were sold in the early 1970s and are nothing short of stunning with their Brutalist design and vibrant silver/chrome color. The most stunning feature is their heavily textured pattern. These Modernist glasses have a slightly footed bottom and a subtle tapered shape. Libbey made this glass design in an amber colored glass as well as clear glass. The "Platinum" color is the most rare of the colors. Truly a breath-taking set. Why not serve your cocktails in these gorgeous vintage glasses?!?
A quick summary about this glassware maker: The Libbey Glass Company has been manufacturing glassware since the 20th Century and is still producing high quality glassware today. Certain vintage Libbey glassware pieces (but not all of them, depending on the size and type of piece) is signed with a cursive “L” within a circle or ring. The mark actually appears backwards if viewed from outside of the glass, but it appears correctly when looking down through the inside.
