King's Crown Glass Photos

King's Crown (aka Kings Crown) is an antique American glass pattern. Its goblets, plates, bowls, etc. are identified by a ring of external 'thumbprints' bordered by zigzags mostly of a crystal clear glass. Often a color like ruby, yellow or green is added to part or the entire object. Copied by several companies, mostly in the American Midwest, King's Crown quality differs with better pieces having the sharpest angles.
