Vintage Culver Antigua 22K Gold Lowball Glasses - MCM Cut Out Oval Rocks - 8 PC

Vintage Culver Antigua 22K Gold Lowball Glasses - MCM Cut Out Oval Rocks - Set of 8  Elevate your home bar with this complete set of 8 Vintage Mid-Century Modern Culver Ltd. Lowball/Rocks Glasses in the iconic Antigua pattern. Featuring textured 22-karat gold lattice work framing clear cut-out oval windows and a crisp gold-rimmed band, these glasses showcase the height of 1960s luxury barware.  ​Why the Antigua Pattern is So Unique & Collectible: ​Culver’s Proprietary High-Heat Application: In the 1960s, Culver Ltd. revolutionized decorative glassware with a super-heated application process that fused real 22K gold directly to the glass. This created thick, raised 3D textures and embossed scrollwork that set them far apart from flat-gilded competitors.  ​Refractive Cut-Out Design: The Antigua pattern features an intricate Moorish-inspired arch and oval motif. When a cocktail or spirit is poured over ice, light reflects off the textured gold and refracts through the clear oval windows, creating a glowing, jewel-like effect.  ​High Value for Collectors: Finding a complete set of 8 in pristine condition is rare. Because vintage gold leaf is easily damaged by dishwashers or rough handling over decades, complete sets with bold, unfaded gilding and visible script signatures command a strong premium among MCM barware enthusiasts and interior stylists.   ​Quantity: Complete set of 8 lowball / rocks glasses ​Pattern: Antigua (circa 1960s) ​Markings: Includes Culver signature mark
