Orange Blendo Pitcher and Drinking Glass Set of 6

Description

Let this fabulous Blendo set in vibrant orange brighten up your next get-together. The set includes a pitcher with six glasses, the finish of each piece fading in typical Blendo style from solid at the base to clear near the top. The glasses are gold rimmed, matching a gold band around the neck of the pitcher. The two quart pitcher measures 9-3/4″ high by 5-3/8″ in diameter (7-1/4″ wide including the handle). The glasses are 5-1/4″ high by 2-3/4″ in diameter. The entire set is in very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks and very minimal wear to the gold. One glass has a small scratch near the bottom (please see photos).

About Blendo Glassware

When it comes to glassware, nothing says midcentury modern quite like the West Virginia Glass Specialty Company’s Blendo line. Characterized by a brightly colored base that fades to clear, examples of Blendo can be found in everything from the classic pitcher and drinking glass sets to salad bowls, chip and dips, cruets and even martini shakers.

Typically priced within reach of even a modest budget, Blendo makes a stylish and useful addition to the housewares collection of anyone whose tastes lean in the direction of “Mod.”
