Founded in 1783 in the Irish harbor town of Waterford by brothers George and William Penrose, Waterford is a globally recognized luxury crystal house. The brand built its reputation on the purity, clarity, and intricate craftsmanship of its glassware, becoming a symbol of timeless refinement and celebratory moments. After a period of dormancy, the company was revitalized in 1947 when Czech glassmaker Karel Bacik and designer Miroslav Havel introduced the now-iconic Lismore pattern, inspired by the rugged architecture of Lismore Castle. This signature diamond and wedge cut remains the world’s best-selling crystal pattern.
