Produced at the Crown Corning works in Waterloo, this 1970s glass features the distinctive bubble stem and a solid weighted base that gives stability, balance, and presence in the hand.

Originally made for hospitality service, the cylindrical bowl suits lager, spritz, soft drinks, or a small wine, while the clear pressed glass and compact proportions bring a clean, quietly sculptural quality to the table.

The indented band above the base provides a comfortable grip and creates a visual separation between the solid stem and the hollow upper form, a practical detail characteristic of Crown Corning’s serviceware from the period.

Each piece is *vintage (see Specifications) and may show minor variations consistent with its age. Price is for one glass. Limited quantities available.

These bubble stem glasses are no longer in production and are best collected as a small set for everyday use or entertaining. Rare pieces for the modern table.
