Description: Amaris/Natchmann heavy crystal wine/water goblets in the Hofbauer Byrdes style. Hofbauer began producing its crystal in the late 1970’s to early 80’s, and advertised it was hand cut, acid polished and contained at least 24% lead for crystal clarity and superb ring. The crystal was made in a variety of shapes and sizes and though most collectors are familiar with their vases, candy dishes, etc they also produced lamps, picture frames, and more all featuring their bird logo. Most pieces can be found in either clear or with ruby red flashing surrounding the birds, but less common are pieces with yellow, purple and blue flashing that are less desirable. Thr Hofbauer factory burned down in the 90’s, and a company called Amaris picked up where Hofbauer left off and produced the Byrdes line for 2-3 years, and then the German company Natchmann began their own line. I believe these to be Amaris or Natchmann. Fine Bavarian crystal. They are heavy weight crystal in superb condition. A gorgeous addition to collection!They measure approximately 7.25” tall, 3” across top and base. Thank you for taking the time to look at my auctions. I am a trusted eBayer who has been selling for over 10 years with a 100% positive feedback rating. I take pride in the things that I sell-most are items that have been used by my family and still have a lot of use/life left. Some items I sell are customer returns or display items from a major retailer and may be marked to prevent retail return. Any used clothing has either been laundered, dry cleaned or freshened and pressed-most clothing worn by my family is washed in cold water and hung to dry. I look everything over very carefully, but I am human and may miss something. If that is that case, please let me know prior to leaving feedback; most any issue can be worked out. I strive to give 5-star service and my performance level depends on it! IF YOU FEEL YOU CANNOT LEAVE ME A 5-STAR RATING IN ANY SPECIFIC AREA PLEASE CONTACT ME SO I MAY HAVE A CHANCE TO MAKE IT RIGHT-LEAVING ME LESS THAN 5 STARS GREATLY AFFECTS MY SELLER RATING. ALSO, IF YOU EVER FEEL YOU HAVE A REASON TO OPEN A CASE FOR ANY REASON, PLEASE CONTACT ME FIRST-MANY TIMES THIS CAN BE AVOIDED. We have a smoke free home and are the proud parents of not only 2 beautiful daughters, but a small poodle as well. Don't worry, she doesn't help with the laundry! Please note that the only form of payment I accept is Paypal, with payment due within 5 days of the auction's end. If you choose the Buy It Now on any of my auctions, please be prepared to remit payment immediately. I typically do not ship internationally-if you wish to bid please message me first to see if I can ship to you at this time. This is not a "business" for me-I simply sell items no longer needed to make some extra money.
