Brief history and description
The Gibson Glass Company was established by Charles Gibson, who began working as a glassmaker during the 1950s, working first within the established glass companies ‘Indiana Glass’ and ‘Blenko’, amongst others. His own company opened in 1976, only to close one year later after Charles Gibson decided to change careers.
The company was reopened in 1983 by Gibson and his son Phillip. It closed again in 2006.
Gibson Glass’s most famous products are probably their glass cruets, though they were also known for a wide range of glassware products, both purely decorative and practical.
