In 1783, two brothers started a little crystal and glassware factory in Waterford, one of Ireland’s busiest ports. Before long, ships began to sail all over the world, laden with Waterford’s beautiful wares; the stuff of legend.

Over the years the Waterford name became synonymous with immaculate quality and exquisite design, and today, Waterford is renowned for the most beautiful stemware the world has to offer.

Launched in 1991, Waterford’s Marquis collection is distinctive as it is enchanting. Each piece of this adaptable range features a unique pattern, often contemporary and chic yet still echoing Waterford’s past traditional designs. The Marquis Markham pattern is a perfect example, with a classic design cut in to modern materials for a substantially weighted yet brilliantly clear glassware range.
