Waterford Crystal

Since 1783, the Waterford name has been synonymous with luxury crystal. Brothers William and George Penrose, in keeping with their prestigious standing in the Irish harbor town of Waterford, founded the company in order to create the finest crystal possible for drinking glasses and objets d'art. That reputation of excellence continues to this day. In 1986 Waterford merged with Wedgwood, maker of fine china, to create an even broader luxury appeal. In addition to partnering with Wedgwood, Waterford also works with Reed & Barton to create classic silver-plated flatware and select ornaments. The company continues to expand its assortment with Marquis by Waterford--affordable crystal giftware--and Evolution by Waterford--a series of colorful, decorative glassware--as well as bed and table linens, holiday collectibles, and cookware, all of which bolster the traditional sparkle of Waterford crystal.

We have some fantastic discounts in our Waterford store across the whole range of Waterford products. For the best bargains available, check the new Sale Items category where you'll find reductions from 20% - 80% off Waterford bestsellers.
