Edinburgh Crystal was a cut glass crystal manufactured in Scotland between 1867 and 2006, and was also the name of the manufacturing company. In addition to drinking glasses, Edinburgh Crystal made decanters, bowls, baskets, and bells, in several ranges. The company produced the glass panels for the lamps on the British royal carriages.
The Edinburgh Crystal company went into administration in 2006 and, following its subsequent acquisition by Waterford Wedgwood, is became solely a brand name.

“Come live with me, and be my love,
And we will some new pleasures prove
Of golden sands, and crystal brooks,
With silken lines, and silver hooks.”
