VTG Kings‎ Crown Tiara Thumbprint Cobalt Blue Glass Goblet 5 1/2" Tall

This cobalt blue goblet represents the popular 'Kings Crown' pattern, also known as 'Thumbprint,' produced primarily by Indiana Glass Company (under the Tiara brand) and Colony Glass from the mid-20th century through the 1980s. The pattern features distinctive raised circular thumbprint indentations and was manufactured in various colors, with cobalt blue being among the most sought-after. These pieces were often sold through home party plans and retail stores, making them accessible to middle-class American households during the post-war era.  Kings Crown glassware appeals strongly to Depression glass collectors, vintage tableware enthusiasts, and those who appreciate mid-century American decorative arts. The cobalt blue color is particularly prized for its rich, vibrant hue and versatility in both casual and formal table settings. Collectors value these pieces for their nostalgic connection to American manufacturing heritage and their ability to add dramatic color accents to displays and dining occasions.
