Tiffin-Franciscan June Night Etched Clear Stemware

This is a collection of fine crystal stemware featuring the 'June Night' pattern, originally introduced by the Tiffin Glass Company and later continued by Franciscan. The primary focus is a flared-rim wine or cocktail goblet constructed from high-quality clear lead crystal. The physical characteristics include a bowl with a wide, trumpet-shaped flare that tapers down to a distinctive 'ball-and-ring' or stacked-bead stem composed of four graduated spheres. The base is circular and flat, providing stability. The defining feature is the delicate 'June Night' needle-etching, which depicts an intricate, all-over floral motif of daisies and winding foliage. This etching covers the exterior of the bowl and is also present on the circular foot, a hallmark of superior craftsmanship. Based on the style and etching technique, these pieces likely date from the mid-20th century (circa 1940s-1960s). The glass appears to be in excellent vintage condition with no visible chips, cracks, or clouding, exhibiting high clarity and a brilliant refractive quality. The uniform execution of the etched design and the seamless joining of the stem to the bowl indicate high-end manufacturing standards typical of American brilliant period successors.
