Madison Sat, 04 Sep 2010 00:18:42 +0000 http://retrorenovation.com/?p=15566#comment-55574 Can anyone help me with this_ I recently bought a set of 4 black and gold vintage glasses. They are very unique in that they have rabbits feet, horseshoes, four leaf clover and wishbones on them. They are in great condition and have "McKay" on them. I love them and would just like to know a little more about them. Can anyone help me with this_ I recently bought a set of 4 black and gold vintage glasses.

I have some recently made retro look juice size glasses that we use every day and have a similar look and feel to my prize collection of vintage juice glasses. however, one old glass was a favorite of my husbands and he put it through the dishwasher maybe 3 times before I noticed that cloudy look to the surface of the glass. The chemicals in todays dishwasher soaps were not around when these pieces were being made. Its perfectly ok to use your vintage pieces, they are especially nice for cocktails or special occasions, but HAND wash them, please.... a note about vintage vs retro look glasses as far as everyday use goes, The advantage is that a retro look glass is fabricated from components in the glass and decoration that will withstand going in the dishwasher.
