Bring a piece of West Michigan shopping history to your table with this Steketee's pint glass. The family's story began in 1862 as a Grand Rapids dry goods business, then grew into an eight-story Monroe Avenue flagship that opened in 1915. As the store expanded across the region, generations made it part of their local shopping memories. This glass celebrates a familiar name and the changing department-store landscape that shaped the community.
Steketee's was a Grand Rapids, Michigan, department store whose roots date to 1862, when Paul Steketee and John H. Doornich started a dry goods business. After a fire devastated the operation, Doornich sold his interest to Steketee, whose family helped rebuild it. As Grand Rapids grew, the family developed an eight-story flagship on Monroe Avenue, which opened in 1915. The company expanded beyond downtown in the 1950s, opening its first satellite store in 1958 and later operating several stores across southwestern Michigan. In 1991, the Fort Worth department store company Dunlaps bought out the Steketee family and brought the stores into its group of brands. Changing retail patterns and competition from national brands affected the business. The downtown Grand Rapids store closed in 1998. The Maple Hill Mall store in Kalamazoo closed in 2003, the same year Dunlaps shut the last Steketee's store, at Westshore Mall. The former downtown Grand Haven store building was later adapted for use as the Tri-Cities Historical Museum.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
