About the Item

Rare and in very good condition, set of eight 22-karat gold hand painted bamboo pattern Tumbler / Highball glasses by the Imperial Glass Company. The bamboo pattern is embossed, meaning the glasses have texture and feel like you're holding stalks of bamboo. The bamboo was then hand painted in 22-karat gold. Extremely desirable these glasses are the pattern that everyone wants, but so hard to find today in great condition. This set works in Hollywood Regency, Chinoiserie, Mid-Century Modern.

Mid-Century Culver “Valencia” 22-Karat Gold Highball Glass Set, 10 Pieces, 1950s
By Culver Ltd.
Located in Miami, FL
Mid-Century Culver “Valencia” 22-Karat Gold Highball Glass Set, 10 Pieces, 1950s, Culver Ltd. Valencia Pattern 22-Karat Gold Highball Glasses, Set of 10, Mid-Century Elevate your barware collection with this elegant vintage Mid-Century Modern Culver highball glass set, featuring the coveted Valencia pattern with lavish 22-karat gold decoration and vibrant emerald-green accents. This 10-piece set showcases Culver’s iconic Moorish / Moroccan-inspired design, a hallmark of their luxurious glassware of the 1950s–early 1960s. Each glass is beautifully adorned with Culver’s signature raised gold scrollwork, geometric motifs, and jewel-tone green panels—an unmistakable detail of early Culver production. The presence of the original “Culver Ltd.” script confirms this is an earlier, high-quality example of the Valencia series. Details Maker: Culver Ltd. Pattern: Valencia (Moorish / Moroccan Revival) Period: Mid-Century Modern, circa 1955–1965 Composition: 22-karat gold decorated glass Quantity: 10 highball glasses Dimensions: • 5 5/8" High • 2 3/4" Diameter (rim) Condition: Very good vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or notable wear. Gold surfaces remain bright and beautifully preserved. Why This Set Stands Out This is a collector-grade example of Culver’s most famous pattern. The Valencia design remains highly sought after for its glamorous metallic finish and Moorish elegance. Perfect for entertaining, gifting, or display on a bar cart, sideboard, credenza, or in a glass-front cabinet, these glasses bring instant sophistication to any home. Add a touch of Mid-Century luxury to your cocktail experience with this exceptional Culver Valencia 10-piece highball set. Vintage Culver...
