Bartlett-Collins’ North Star remains one of the most recognizable patterns of the Atomic era, celebrated for its vibrant color palette, distinctive starburst motif, and elegant metallic gold decoration.
Produced during the late 1950s and early 1960s, these glasses represent the artistry and enduring quality that established Bartlett-Collins as one of America’s most respected names in decorated glassware.
More than six decades later, they continue to reflect the timeless design and exceptional standards that defined the company’s celebrated mid-century legacy.
More than sixty years after they were created, this set continues to showcase the enduring quality of American glassmaking.
The vibrant colors remain remarkably rich, the metallic gold starburst decoration presents beautifully, and the substantial double-step bases reflect the durability and attention to detail expected from a manufacturer whose work has stood the test of time.
As was common with much of Bartlett-Collins’ decorated glassware from this era, these glasses were produced without permanent maker’s marks and have been carefully identified through their distinctive North Star decoration, characteristic glass form, substantial double-step bases, and comparison with documented period examples recognized by collectors and vintage glass specialists.
This seven-piece highball set showcases the pattern beautifully.
Whether displayed in a Mid-Century Modern collection, enjoyed as part of a vintage home bar, or appreciated as a lasting example of American Atomic-era design, it remains every bit as visually striking today as when it was first produced.
Please review all photographs carefully, as they represent the exact seven-piece set you will receive.
