Edinburgh Crystal - Ranges

Ranges

There were many ranges of glassware but at the collectable end there were just four in the former 'Connoisseur Collection'.

  • 'Star of Edinburgh' - decorated with a star-burst pattern.
  • 'Thistle' - the tops of these pieces are shaped in accordance with the thistle theme while the body is stippled.
  • 'King James' - glassware in this range is notable for the long stems and neck, and is loosely based on that in use in the 17th century.
  • 'Lochnagar' - Lochnagar was introduced during the reign of Queen Victoria and can be identified by its swirling pattern.
