Duncan and Miller ‘Mandarin’

Etched Glass, Mandarin, Oriental, Water Goblet

Over the years I have had some dealings with the very nice woman, Sandy, who curates the Etsy shop Elegant Etches.

I like to troll through her shop as she has beautiful items and is great at their identification.  I came across this set of stemware and thought they were absolutely gorgeous.  Stewed about them for awhile until I cracked and bought them.

I decided that they would become my new set for the table and I sold off my collection of Heisey Queen Ann stems with the Belle-le-Rose etches which had been my tableware.

Sandy told me that she thought that the line was called Mandarin, and that has since been verified.  But the etch is unknown.  I have posted the stems in a number of places seeking some information, to no avail.  Someone said that the decoration on the ‘cube’ is ‘oriental’ not Greek Key as I had originally thought.

This line was made in the 1950s.  Duncan and Miller used outside decorating companies, so this etch might be quite unique and never to be identified.  But they are gorgeous.

I have since verified that it is a piece of Duncan & Miller.

I often see tumblers pressed in the honeycombed Georgian pattern.  A number of companies produced these tumblers and it is far beyond my ability to recognize whose is what.

I came across this pitcher recently and was struck by its rich colour.  I have never before seen a pitcher in this pattern.

I haven’t had any luck identifying it, but have seen a similar item online, in a different colour, identified as a piece by Duncan & Miller.  Would love to know definitively, if anyone has any info.
