Waterford Crystal

If you want beautiful crystal you should invest in Waterford Crystal. The company is based in Waterford, Ireland. One could argue that Waterford Crystal got its start in the 18th century. In 1783 George and William Penrose stared a crystal company.

People all over the world knew of the Crystal but the company would not stay in business. It closed down in 1851. Decades later, in 1947, Charles Bacik decided to start making glass items in the city because he knew that it had a rich glassware history.

Bacik and Miroslav Havel started a new crystal company. Now the company specializes in home decor, china, bed and bath accessories and even lighting. They also make an assortment of crystal desk clocks. For the kitchen you can stock up on Waterford cookware and even small appliances. The company has come up with toasters and waffle makers.

Although the appliances are not made of crystal, The Home Decor division consists of vases, candleholders, frames and classic perfume bottles. If you or someone you love is a sports fan you can find sports collector`s items from Waterford.
