About Ravenhead
Ravenhead is a historic British glassware brand with roots stretching back to 1850 in Lancashire. Founded by Frances Dixon and John Merson near Ravenhead Colliery, the company grew to become the largest maker of table glass in the UK during its 1970s heyday. At its peak, Ravenhead was producing an astonishing 200 million glasses per year and exporting to over 100 countries worldwide. The brand's golden era saw collaborations with renowned designers including John Clappison, Annette Meech, David Queensbury, and Alexander Hardie Williamson, who created beloved ranges such as Siesta, Barmaster, Elegance, White Fire, Apollo, and Solar. The White Fire range became so popular it was commonly requested as a wedding gift. Ravenhead's first TV advertising campaign in 1972 brought the brand into British homes nationwide. Today, Ravenhead is part of the Rayware Group, a family-owned housewares company founded in 1975 that has become a leading supplier of British homewares. Rayware's portfolio includes other iconic British brands such as Kilner (preserving jars), Mason Cash (mixing bowls), Viners (cutlery), Typhoon, and Price & Kensington. This backing ensures Ravenhead continues to deliver quality glassware with British design heritage. The modern Ravenhead range includes wine glasses, champagne flutes, cocktail glasses, gin glasses, highball tumblers, mixer glasses, and more.
