Chic and Useful Vintage Retro Blendo Martini Barware

What happened to the time of the Beatles, beatniks and bohemians? It was such a rad time! I think it would be possible to recreate the mid-century (1950's-1960's) scene with Vintage Blendo Glassware!

This is a legitimate mid-century Vintage Blendo Glassware Turquoise Blue Martini Pitcher. I really wish I had this for my upcoming winter party! The glasses are white "frosted" with gold rims.

Maybe these Blendo Glass Champagne Flutes might be a better fit for your home. The colors that are available make me reminisce about my parents' vintage glassware. This would be super fun for a retro party or for a bar owner that might want to have a retro night.

This mid-century set is quite elegant. The Vintage Blendo Cocktail Pitcher and Six Matching Roly Poly Glasses almost looks gold in the pictures, but they are an olive green. I think this would be great for future parties!

I'm in love with this Vintage Blendo Fiery Pink Pitcher, Glasses, and Garnish Bowl Set. It exudes so much energy! I can imagine my parents pouring lemonade from a pitcher exactly like this. I really don't feel like millennials have the same appreciation for beautiful glassware like people did in the mid-century.

Easter is just around the corner, and these Vintage Blendo Frosted Margarita Glasses would be awesome for the adults! They come in very pastel colors. Maybe a collector of mid-century goods would find these enhance their collection.

This Orange Vintage Frosted Blendo Martini Tall Pitcher is lovely. This would be a great bowl for punch. Too bad Mad Men is over, because this would be a fun piece to have at a Mad Men party.

Finally, another stunning set, the Large Retro Blendo Frosted Mint Green Pitcher and Margarita Glasses. A margarita out of this baby would just be amazing!

I can see why mid-century Blendo Glassware is so coveted. Look at other colors and sets of Vintage Blendo Glassware on Etsy! Tell me what you think down below in the comments!

An Unusual Soviet Coffee Maker

This is such an interesting find! Monsters Under the Sea is an Etsy store that has new and vintage items from Eastern Europe and Soviet Russia.

I wouldn't be able to use this myself, but maybe a collector or someone here would be able to find use for this beautiful NOS Sand Coffee Maker! It's incredibly rare and not used at all. This item is from 1985.

It's an easy to use desktop coffee maker for brewing coffee on hot sand. It uses an ancient Middle Eastern technique that helps to make a delicious smooth, flavorful drink by using consistent heat.
