Corning called these creations "Glas-Snap" tumblers. The insert "snaps" in and out of the plastic holder. I really like the modern feel of this Freda Diamond design. Being made of Pyrex glass, they are good for hot or cold beverages. 


This is how these Corning creations are described in the Corning archive: "Pyrex Mug with Black Holder. Colorless glass; black plastic; machine-made. Tapering cylindrical shape glass that sits in a black base with handle." 


The 12 ounce size stands 5 1/2 inches tall when in the holder while the 8 ounce size stands 5 inches tall. There is a slight smoky gray color to the glass. 


In the 1973 catalog which accompanied the recent Pyrex Centennial exhibit, these two sizes are shown in plastic bases of the following colors: Spring Blossom Green, Snowflake Blue, and Butterfly Gold. Sound familiar? Well it should if you are Pyrex collector. In fact, there was also a matching 1 Quart Serving Pitcher and a larger size 1 1/2 Quart Pitcher available to accompany these Glas-Snap mugs. 


I am not yet sure what year the black plastic bases were produced but my guess is around the same time period. Excellent condition  This iconic 1970s pattern go, the "Butterfly Gold" pattern which made its debut in 1972 was designed by Gregory Mirow. The elements of the design are highly stylized: flower, butterflies, sheaf of wheat. 


This particular style of cup is made of a product called Vitrelle which is "a tempered glass product consisting of two types of glass laminated into three layers." (wikepedia). 


These "hook-handle" cups were made between 1972 until 1982 and as you can see stack easily, one of their selling points. They were designed by Charles B. Ketcham. 


Excellent condition. It's time to plan a coffee klatch!  Coffee? Tea? Hot Cider? A set of 4 shape 1410 coffee mugs for your retro kitchen java extravaganza!

This iconic 1970s pattern is the "Spring Blossom Green" pattern which made its debut in 1972 and was designed by Sara Balbach.


 The elements of the design are highly stylized in a band around the cup: abstract small white flowers with green centers, green flowers with white centers, solid green dots, and green outlined white leaves. This set of four is also available at Barge Canal Market for $20 and is ready for hot coffee, hot cocoa, hot tea, you name it.
