Tiffin Glass Amber Franciscan Kingsbury Footed Ice Tea Goblet

This item is a vintage footed water or iced tea goblet crafted from amber-toned pressed glass. Characterized by its warm, honey-colored transparency, the goblet features a flared rim and a distinctively molded bowl. The design displays the 'Kingsbury' pattern (marketed under the Franciscan line), which includes a geometric band of zig-zags and stylized thumbprint or 'coin' indentations near the base of the bowl. The construction is solid with a thick, pedestal-style stem leading to a circular, slightly domed base. Based on the style and manufacturing technique, this piece likely dates to the late 1960s or 1970s, a period when this heavy, earth-toned glassware was highly popular in American households. Physically, the glass remains in good vintage condition with no immediate chips or cracks visible on the rim or base. Minor surface scratches and shelf wear on the bottom of the foot are standard for its age. The craftsmanship is typical of mid-century mass-market glass production by the Tiffin Glass Company, showing consistent color saturation and well-defined molded details. No specific makers' marks are visible in the photograph, which is common for these pressed glass lines, as they often used paper labels that have since been removed.
