[[Album] Green Drinking Glass ![](https://i.imgur.com/16qsins.jpeg?fb "Green Drinking Glass") ](https://imgur.com/a/tzzI6#0) This glass was purchased by my parents at least 35 years ago. I would like to buy more that look exactly this is, if possible. I’ve Googled with all the terms I can think of, but no success. Any ideas for how I might go about getting more of these? ---

The key term is “dimpled”, though **KneadToKnow** found a good match which doesn’t use the term. ---

Try looking for the glassware company “Hazel-Atlas.” I think you might want “Hazelware,” in avocado specifically. If you search “Hazel-Atlas” “el dorado” you’ll get a ton of hits on dimpled glassware. Oh, and I’ll assume there is none, but if there’s a stamp or mark on the bottom, that would make it easier. I’m guessing no or you would have said. ---

You might want to check some of the restaurant supply houses in your area, at least the ones that are open to the public. They might have them, or can get them. With supper clubs on the rise again, some of that vintage (looking) stuff might be making a comeback. ---

I’m guessing no or you would have said. That brought up some good results, thanks! I thought I checked for a stamp and didn’t find one, but I’ll ask my Mom to check again (the glass is at her place a few states away). > [@Joey\_P](#): > > You might want to check some of the restaurant supply houses in your area, at least the ones that are open to the public. They might have them, or can get them. With supper clubs on the rise again, some of that vintage (looking) stuff might be making a comeback. Good idea, thanks! I think there’s actually one nearby work that I found looking for restaurants on Google Maps for a place to have lunch. ---

I’m sorry to disrupt your thread but I feel the need to tell you that the title seems ambiguous to me. The title does not make it clear whether you are making the statement that you wish to purchase these glasses or whether you are asking the question from where can you purchase these glasses. I apologize if I interrupted you. ---
