Silver Fade Monogram Tumbler Glass

This is a vintage-style highball or water tumbler featuring a distinctive silver-tone gradient or fade design. The piece is constructed from clear glass and stands approximately 6 to 7 inches tall. The most prominent feature is a thick band of silver metallic plating at the rim that gradually thins downward, a style popular in Mid-Century Modern barware (circa 1950s-1960s). Centered on the body is a large, stylized monogram letter 'C' in a cursive, script-like font, executed in a matching silver metallic finish. The base is heavy and weighted (sham bottom), providing stability and a premium feel. Upon close inspection, the silver plating shows signs of age-related wear, including minor scuffing and thinning of the metallic layer near the edges, which is typical for items of this age that have been hand-washed but not meticulously preserved. No visible chips or cracks are apparent in the glass body. This item exemplifies the cocktail culture aesthetic of the mid-20th century, likely produced by a company such as Dorothy Thorpe or Vitreon Queen's Lusterware, though no specific maker's mark is visible in the view.
