Crystal - Waterford Crystal Gifts

Waterford Crystal was first established in 1783 on land adjacent to Merchants' Quay in the heart of the Irish harbor town of Waterford. Its founders were two brothers, William and George Penrose, who had a vision to "create the finest quality crystal for drinking vessels and objects of beauty for the home." More than two hundred years later, the reputation they established for creating glass of unsurpassed beauty and quality has remained.

Lismore Leads the Way

The most popular pattern of Waterford Crystal is the classic and timeless Lismore pattern and siopa.com offers a range from the Lismore collection including the Waterford Crystal Lismore Pitcher; the Waterford Crystal Lismore Goblet (pair); the Waterford Crystal Lismore Cake Plate and the Waterford Crystal Lismore Biscuit Barrel.

The inspiration for the Lismore collection, which is now over 60 years in existence, was the gothic architecture of the 800-year-old Lismore Castle in County Waterford, Ireland (Lismore, derived from the gaelic ‘lios more’ means ‘great ring fort’ in English). Other items available on siopa.com include the Waterford Crystal Meridian Clock and the Waterford Crystal Round Ring Holder – both ideal gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, new homes or other special occasions. All Waterford Crystal items can be courier delivered direct from Ireland to the USA.
