Libbey calls this a 'cooler glass'. Named the 'Designer for Everybody' by Life magazine in 1954, Freda Diamond enjoyed a highly successful, fifty-year career as a home furnishings consultant. If someone you know set up housekeeping in the mid-twentieth century, they probably owned something ' cabinets, drapes, kitchen canisters, plastic furniture, tables, lamps, mirrors, rugs, drinking glasses, or window shades ' designed by Freda Diamond.
