VTG Georges Briard Nautical Signal FlagsDouble Old Fashioned Glassesset(4)MCM

This stunning set of four double old-fashioned glasses features the highly collectible "Nautical Signal Flags" (sometimes referred to as the maritime burgee pattern) designed by Georges Briard. Born Jascha Brodsky in Ukraine, Briard became an absolute titan of American mid-century modern design. Throughout the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, his signature style defined upscale cocktail culture, blending functional glassware with playful, elegant, and often geometric graphics. While Briard is famous for his 22-karat gold-gilded designs, his nautical and maritime collections are highly prized for their vibrant, crisp enamel work. This particular design features various international maritime signal flags draped over stylized, intersecting black rigging lines, perfectly capturing the optimistic, coastal-living aesthetic of postwar Americana and yacht club lifestyle.

This vintage glassware set would be wonderful on a boat or for a seaside home. Condition: These glasses are in vintage condition and priced accordingly. Two of the glasses have scratches to the flags on the outside of the glasses. One glass has a scratch on the bottom.

Please view all photos to get an accurate assessment of condition. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for looking at this lovely MCM nautical glassware set.
