For two centuries, the city of Waterford has produced the world's finest crystal. Craftsmanship, stunning design, an unrivalled dedication to quality - these have
been the guiding principles, which have, for over two hundred years, ensured that
Waterford Crystal has come to be recognised as the finest in the world.

Established in 1783 by two pioneering brothers, George and William Penrose, the Viking city of Waterford was the Irish birthplace of this now world-renowned industry. It was their vision, craftsmanship and uncompromising high standards that served to forge the magic of a brand known worldwide, simply as 'Waterford'.
