Waterford Crystal is a trademark brand of crystal glassware that used to produced in Waterford, Ireland. The factory was eventually shut down.
I just ordered two Curraghmore champagne flutes to match the rest of my Waterford crystal, which was purchased years ago and definitely made in Ireland. The new crystal is beautiful, but on the boxes it says "Waterford" and "Made in Hungary."
Waterford Crystal
Patterns in Waterford Crystal are traditionally cut by hand. However, much Waterford crystal is now produced outside the Republic of Ireland, typically in Eastern Europe.
Waterford Crystal is made at the Waterford Factory in Ireland. Not true, anymore. I went to Waterford, Ireland this April (2009) on my honeymoon. There are no tours of the factory, because the factory is closed. The employee told us the crystal is now made in Eastern Europe. My 2009 Christmas ornament is marked "Made in Germany."
William and George Penrose founded Waterford Crystal back in 1783. They were brothers who lived in Waterford, Ireland. They had been developers and exporters before setting up the company.
I think your referring to Waterford crystal, the factory was closed in 2009 but glass is still produced in mainland in Europe in Germany and the Czech republic.
Some Waterford Crystal is made in Waterford but not as industrially as before the factory in Waterford closed down. A year or so later the House of Waterford Crystal opened, it makes a bit of the crystal but only really to sell in the store. Frankly it cost to much to make in Ireland with the minimum pay of €1,461.85 a month. It is much cheaper to make in places such as China.
Waterford
Waterford Crystal is brand name, originally it was all made in Waterford. Now though it is very expensive to make high quality glass in a country such as Ireland. It is far cheaper to make in China etc. Waterford Crystal is a brand name not a promise.
