History of Cambridge Glass Company
Founded in 1901 in Cambridge, Ohio, the Cambridge Glass Company quickly established itself as one of America’s finest manufacturers of elegant glassware. Known for combining innovative designs with exceptional craftsmanship, Cambridge produced hand-blown stemware, decorative tableware, and finely etched patterns that rivaled the finest European crystal. During the Elegant Glass era, the company became especially admired for its brilliant crystal, artistic etchings, and sophisticated stemware. Although production ended in 1958, Cambridge Glass remains one of the most collectible names in American glassmaking, prized by collectors for its beauty, quality, and enduring craftsmanship.
The Rose Point Pattern
Introduced in 1935, Rose Point became Cambridge Glass Company’s most iconic and best-selling etched pattern. Inspired by romantic English gardens, the design features graceful clusters of blooming roses connected by delicate vines and foliage. Unlike many Depression-era patterns, Rose Point continued in production well into the 1950s due to its widespread popularity and timeless appeal. Today it remains one of the most sought-after patterns among collectors of Elegant Glass, admired for its versatility, refined floral design, and ability to complement both vintage and contemporary table settings.
Whether you’re completing a Cambridge Rose Point collection, searching for authentic Elegant Glass, or looking for a distinctive gift for a vintage glass enthusiast, this beautiful iced tea tumbler is a wonderful piece of American glassmaking history.
