Etched Shot Glasses

These colored glass shot glasses appear to be from the mid-20th century, featuring a distinctive barrel or tumbler shape in blue and amethyst (purple) colored glass.

The design reflects the popularity of colored glassware during the mid-century modern period, when manufacturers like Cambridge, Libbey, and various European glassmakers produced similar items.

These types of colored glass shot glasses are sought after by collectors of vintage barware and mid-century modern home accessories. They appeal to collectors for their vibrant colors, simple yet elegant forms, and their representation of mid-century entertaining culture.

Such pieces are particularly valued by those furnishing retro-style bars or those who appreciate the craftsmanship of colored glass from this period.
