An enduring beauty by crystal designer Miroslav Havel, Lismore was first introduced to the world in 1952. Waterford reintroduced Lismore in 2002 to celebrate a reign of fifty years as one of the most popular crystal patterns in the world. Striking and versatile, this Lismore pitcher makes an inspired gift for a young couple beginning to build a crystal collection, and complements a wide range of Lismore stemware and accoutrements.

Lismore is the definitive, classic pattern everyone thinks of when they think of Waterford crystal. Heavy and lavishly cut to catch and reflect light brilliantly, the Lismore pitcher features a striking diamond cut pattern around the lower half of the traditionally rounded body, while long wedge cuts shoot up toward the smooth, rolled rim. The handle arches gracefully and makes the simple act of pouring water or lemonade a pleasure. Like all fine full-lead crystal, the pitcher should be washed by hand in hot, soapy water, then rinsed and dried thoroughly to protect the porous surface from harsh detergents. With care, crystal lasts for generations. --Ann Bieri When elegance reigns, it pours.
