The set includes a tall, sleek decanter (often called a “decanter pitcher” or “martini mixer”) paired with six matching lowball or old-fashioned glasses, all featuring Dorothy Thorpe’s signature silver fade technique.

The decanter stands gracefully with a cylindrical shape and a polished silver band near the top, while the glasses display a beautiful graduated silver fade from the rim downward, creating a shimmering, reflective effect that catches the light beautifully. The heavy, high-quality glass has a substantial feel and subtle vertical ribbing that adds texture and visual interest.

Dorothy Thorpe was a celebrated California designer known for her luxurious glassware and barware in the mid-20th century. Her silver-fade pieces became highly sought after for their Hollywood Regency and Mid-Century Modern aesthetic, appearing in upscale homes, restaurants, and Hollywood sets during the 1960s. This set is a classic example of her work—stylish, functional, and instantly recognizable.

The set is in very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks. The silver fade shows light, even wear consistent with age and use, adding to its authentic mid-century charm. The decanter includes its original stirrer.

Perfect for a retro bar cart, entertaining, or as a striking decorative accent on a sideboard or shelf.

A timeless Dorothy Thorpe cocktail set that brings instant Mid-Century Modern sophistication to any gathering.
