Look in any china cabinet in homes across the country and you will find vintage glass. There may be the pretty greens and pinks of Depression dinnerware, or the deep crimson of ruby glass. There may be brightly decorated barware from the 50’s or even milk bottles from a time when the milkman came to your door daily. Glass is one of the most collectible items in history as it tells a story of daily lives throughout the last two hundred years. Glass has been used for food, beverages, perfumes, serving and ornaments over the years.
One of the reasons why collectible glass is so popular is that it is an inexpensive way to remember the way people lived. Who drank from that wine glass fifty years ago? What tables did it grace and what occasions did it mark? Look at the wine glasses in your cupboard right now? Will someone wonder those same things about your glasses fifty years from now? Today’s everyday items become tomorrow’s collectibles. Those silly Star Wars glass mugs you collected with each fast food meal you bought may be sentimental to someone else down the road. There is likely to be glassware your great grandparents used regularly that you would cherish if it had been passed down.
In almost every china cabinet, you will also find the glass that tells the best stories: personalized etched glass. There may be etched wine glasses, carafes, dinner plates, or more ornamental pieces. The occasions commemorated by the etching may be weddings, graduations, anniversaries or even the birth of a new baby. Personalized etched glass tells the story of a life and marks the happiest of occasions.
Etched glass can remind you of your grandfather’s bowling championship or your parents’ wedding. Your fifth grade public speaking award may be etched onto a glass paper weight or your fifth anniversary remembered with a pair of glass champagne flutes.
Etched glass may outlast you and therefore becomes something you can pass down to your children and your children’s children to remember you by- a living history of your life and the best moments in it.
When looking for a thoughtful gift for friends or family on a special occasion, personalized etched glass is a unique present that will be remembered for a long time. Barware can sport the names of the hosts as a housewarming gift. Red wine glasses can be inscribed with a wine loving couple’s anniversary date and customized artwork. Personalized glass is the perfect way to prevent against copycat presents. Your gift will be unique and meaningful. There is never an occasion that doesn’t lend itself to such a personalized gift.
Fifty years from now, when friends look at the beautiful glass that adorns your grandchildren’s china cabinets, they may reflect on special moments in your life, celebrated in glass. A family history etched in glass.
