Imperial Glass Company - Glassware

The Imperial Glass Company began in Bellaire Ohio in 1910. They produced tableware as well as art glass products. The company filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 1984, a real loss to the American glass industry. I have pieces from six of their patterns but predominately from their candlewick line.

Candlewick

Imperial Candlewick has a distinctive beadwork on the edges. It came is a variety of colors. Some beads are small and other larger. Imperial produced candlewick from 1936 to 1984.

Crocheted Glass

The Imperial Glass Company produced Crocheted glassware from 1943 until the early 1950s.

Embossed Rose

Don't know if "Embossed Rose" is actual name of this pattern by Imperial Glass but it certainly describes it.

Nu-Cut #212

Imperial Glass produced the Nu-Cut #212 pattern in 1913. So far as I know, only the cream and sugar were produced.

Simplicity

Imperial Simplicity (Stem #440) has four distinct bulges on the stem. The #440 stem also was the base for Imperial's Valencia pattern.

Vintage Grape

Imperial Vintage Grape is a heavy glassware that came in several colors.
