Antique W.J. Hughes Etched Glass Cornflower Sugar & Creamer Set with Candlewick Handle

Description

Lovely vintage sugar and creamer set with the traditional candlewick knobbed handles with an etched floral design. Interesting pieces as we don’t see Canadian glass in North Carolina very often.

From the Museum of Dufferin website:
W. J. Hughes Corn Flower Glass is a Canadian business success story. The striking floral pattern was developed in 1912 by a young glass-cutter named William John Hughes. The Dufferin-born artisan grew his tableware creations into a national brand that has been enjoyed by Canadian families for over a century.

The delicate glassware was sold to working class families, at an affordable price, to add a bit of elegance and charm to their dinner tables. Both W. J. Hughes and his son-in-law Pete Kayser were committed to the basic principles of quality and affordability, and their innovative marketing during the 1950s and 1960s made Corn Flower a household name.
