Fabulous Libbey Corona Water Set

This is an elegant water set in Libbey’s Corona (formerly known as Spillane) pattern. All pieces are signed with the Libbey Saber mark.

The Corona pattern consists of two main portions. The first portion is made up of a large vesica of two hobstars. Each hobstar is topped off with checking and divided by crosshatching. The other portion of the pattern is made up of 4 vertical bands of notched prism. Weaving among these bands are deep clear miters and the bands are sandwiched by additional hobstars and checking. The base of the pitcher is finished wiht a rayed star and the handle is triple notched. The pitcher is quite heavy and has a thick, almost paperweight like base – a really impressive touch.

The pitcher measures 11 5/8″ tall and 5 1/4″ wide and tumblers just under 4″ tall and 3″ wide. All pieces are perfect with the exception of just the tiniest amount of pattern roughness to the base of two of the tubmlers (this is extremely minimal). I beautiful, hard to find set!
