WATERFORD Crystal designs, manufactures and markets an extensive range of crystal stemware, barware and giftware for distribution throughout the world. In recent years, WATERFORD has built upon its reputation as a leading source of prestigious tabletop and gift products by expanding into several new businesses. Significant expansions into tabletop and gifts have occurred with the launch of the Marquis by WATERFORD, the addition of WATERFORD Fine China, WATERFORD Fine Flatware, and WATERFORD Holiday Heirlooms. Each of those initiatives reflects the company's commitment to creating prestigious products -- for gift giving, entertaining, and home decorating -- whose classic designs transcend time.

The company of WATERFORD was first established in 1783 on land adjacent to Merchants' Quay in the heart of the Irish harbour town of WATERFORD. Its founders were two brothers, William and George Penrose, who were important developers and principal exporters in the city. Their vision was to "create the finest quality crystal for drinking vessels and objects of beauty for the home." More than two hundred years later, the reputation they established for creating glass of unsurpassed beauty and quality has transcended the intervening centuries.

In 2002, WATERFORD celebrated the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the Lismore pattern of crystal. Almost every year since its inception, Lismore has topped the popularity list and has been the biggest selling pattern of crystal in the world. But there are others among the repertoire of Ireland's most famous export that has gained their own following - Alana, Carina, Araglin to name a few.

WATERFORD Crystal has become almost a synonym for the finest quality crystal sought after by collectors and connoisseurs around the world. Each piece of WATERFORD is watermarked with the word "WATERFORD", a signature indicating the name of the finest crystal in the world.
