Decorative Waterford Crystal Glass Compote with an impressive pedestal base, H:8" Diameter: 12". Waterford Crystal is a trademark brand of crystal glassware produced in Waterford, Ireland, by the company Waterford Wedgwood , previously trading as Waterford Glass Ltd. The crystal business was originally founded in the city in 1783 by George and William Penrose; the production was of extremely fine crystal that became world-renowned. Financial difficulties caused their company to close, due to excessive taxation of the product. Later in 1947, Czech immigrant Charles Bacik, grandfather of Irish senator Ivana Bacik, established a glass works in the city, due to the superb reputation of the original glassware and by the early 1950s it had been taken over as a subsidiary of the Irish Glass Bottle company. Waterford Crystal Limited is currently a member of Waterford Wedgwood plc, formed through the acquisition by the then Waterford Glass Group of the famous pottery manufacturer Josiah Wedgwood in 1986. The Waterford Glass Crystal is a fine cut and elegant look and quality.
