ABOUT WATERFORD CRYSTAL, with help from Google search, Wikipedia, and other online sources. The Waterford company has a reputation for its exquisite glassware and has collaborated with leading designers in the world of fashion and luxury living. The most recognized feature of Waterford Crystal is its dazzling sparkle, often attributed to the “Rheintour cut” which creates a diamond-like appearance when light hits the glass. Waterford Crystal creations are known for their brilliance, clarity, craftsmanship, and deep, intricate cuts made by hand by master cutters who have trained for years. Some of the cuts include fine diamond shapes and open plain diamond shapes, which are symmetrical arrangements of cuts that give the crystal a diamond-like appearance. Each Waterford Crystal is inspected at every stage of production to ensure that it meets the company’s exacting standards. Waterford Crystal is made from a combination of raw materials, including. Quartz sand, Soda, Limestone, Potash, Lead, and Metal oxides such as lead and potassium. Waterford Crystal is made using a variety of techniques, including. Molding: Master Blowers use wood molds to create molten crystal. They use a furnace that reaches temperatures of 2,400 degrees F to manipulate the molten crystal. Master Cutters use wedge cutting and flat cutting techniques to create the desired shape. The crystal is polished to remove any rough edges. The Waterford Company was founded in Waterford, Ireland in 1783 by George and William Penrose, an uncle and nephew who aimed to create the finest quality crystal drinkware and decorative objects. Most Waterford crystal is now produced outside of Ireland. The company has an multi-centuries international reputation for its exquisite glassware and has collaborated with leading designers in the world of fashion and luxury living.
