A lovely and rare Mid Century set of vintage "Oil Derrick" martini pitcher set. This set includes 2 small rocks glasses, 1 martini pitcher, and 1 glass stirring wand/muddler. This pattern features a deep black "Oil Derrick" pattern with gold rims on the top and a thicker gold band on the bases. Truly a stunning set that displays beautifully.
*To the person that asked if we had this pattern a few years back: our apologies but for some reason our messages didn't save your contact info. We hope you nab these. Cheers!
Maker: Lotus -- many (including us in the past) attribute this pattern to Culver. It was actually made by a company called Lotus in the 1960s. Culver did, however, make an opaque black pattern that included gold Oil Rigs. But this pattern in the listing was made by Lotus. Similar to Culver in that they used real 22k gold in their pattern.
Hallmarks: There's a gold foil sticker on the pitcher that says "Lotus 22k gold trim".
Measurements: The pitcher measures 6 1/4" tall x 3" in diameter; the stirring wand (which has a flat muddler tip) measures 8 1/4" in length; the rocks glasses measure 2 3/4" tall x 2 1/2" in diameter -- please note: these are SMALL rocks glasses, not a large or what we'd refer to as a double rocks glass size.
Condition: Excellent condition. This set is NOS (new old stock) and has never been used. The gold is extremely vibrant. The black is vibrant and rich in color. The glass clarity is pristine.
**On shipping: We take our packaging very seriously and carefully wrap all pieces to ensure safe delivery. This set will be double-boxed to ensure safe arrival.
