The Hour specializes in vintage barware and cocktail glasses to help you style your home bar and add to the enjoyment of your cocktail hour. We seek to reinvent today's cocktail hour by bringing back mid-century style for home entertaining with a decidedly modern day twist. Alongside our new products, we carry one-of-a-kind vintage chic barware, glassware and trays from notable designers including
Dorothy Thorpe, Georges Briard, Fred Press, Culver and Couroc. New products, such as Roost glassware, Images d' Orient coasters and trays from Rock, Flower, Paper, J. Fleet Designs and Pacific Connections, blend with our vintage treasures and are artfully displayed in our historic building located on King Street in Old Town Alexandria. You will find everything you need at The Hour to create your own stylish bar and enjoy that special time of day, including glassware, shakers, pitchers, jiggers, muddlers and stirrers, bitters, napkins and even bar carts. To enhance your cocktail wardrobe, we offer a large collection of vintage cocktail jewelry, clutch handbags and cufflinks. We also offer a Bridal Wish List and are a wonderful source for hostess gifts as well as gifts for that special occasion.
One person's pest is another's perfection. I have to laugh at my friend's fight to eradicate bamboo when this bamboo is supremely desirable. The red glass design is raised over the frosted base glass combining texture and beauty together. Love this ice bucket and zombie glass set! I'd grow this in my garden, wouldn't you?
Lemon drinks are the perfect way to stay cool this weekend. ๐These Ribbon Dance and Square Peg glasses are on sale for 50% off while they last. Quench your thirst in style with glasses from our sister store, The Modern Home Bar.
Too pretty for the walking dead! This midcentury zombie glass is ready for a summertime mix of rums, tropical fruit juices and bitters served iced and cold. ๐ด Serve the classic zombie cocktail in a vintage zombie glass to wake up your next Happy Hour!
