Set of 5 English Stuart Crystal Monaco brandy glasses.
In 1827 eleven year old Frederick Stuart was sent to work at the Red House Glass Works on the 'crystal mile', an area just outside Stourbridge, the centre of English glassmaking. By 1853 he and a small group of partners had taken over the works and formed the company that would eventually be known as Stuart Crystal. A long and storied family run business, Stuart Crystal made special stemware, brandy and wine decanters for use on the Titanic and sailed with the Queen Mary in the 1930s. Purchased by Waterford Wedgewood in 1995, the company was dissolved just a few years later, though Waterford continues to use the name Stuart on some of its crystal.
