Waterford Lismore Cordial Goblets — Irish Castle Light, Hand-Cut Crystal (Pair, 5″)

Few objects hold light the way Lismore crystal does. Introduced in 1952 by Waterford’s master designer Miroslav Havel, the pattern was inspired by the battlements of Lismore Castle and the way Irish rain catches on its stone walls.

This pair of 5-inch goblets carries that heritage in miniature — a dense lattice of diamond cuts rising from a clear stem to a star-carved base. They were meant for cordials and liqueurs, but also shine as petite wine stems at a candle-lit table. Each glass is hand-cut from full-lead crystal in Ireland, balancing brilliant refraction with the reassuring weight of true Waterford work.

Use them to finish a dinner with a splash of port, or stage them in a bar cabinet as the sparkle that says “celebration.” Their timeless profile suits everything from traditional dining rooms to modern cocktail nooks, making them as versatile as they are storied.
