VINTAGE ARCOROC PINK SWIRL GLASS

Vintage Arcoroc Pink Swirl Glass



I was watching Roseanne's Nuts the other day (OK this is not a show I would normally admit to watching but I was waiting for something else to come on Lifetime, so yeah I was watching it, kind of) and she was visiting her Mom.  In her mother's kitchen I saw pink swirl Arcoroc glass and it made want to share a picture of my collection of vintage pink swirl ARCOROC glass.  Roseanne's Mom had it sitting on shelves in her kitchen.  I would never keep mine out like that because I simply could not keep it clean but it did look beautiful.  Instead I keep my collection in a vintage hutch.


  It is usually collected as circa 1950s glass and that is true to some extent but it was actually produced until the 1970s.  Some people mistakenly call it depression glass but it is not depression glass but it is FRENCH glass.  If you ever have a chance to hold a piece of French glass in your hands you will understand why it is so collectible.  It is a very high quality glass and it's beauty is beyond compare.  


This is a beautiful set for parties and intimate dinners. 


Till next time,
Beverly

  1. Could you possibly email a few closer photos of the dishes to me?
    I have inherited some dishes from my husbands family.
    I think they may be similar.
    I've been trying to find history on them.
