Product Details & Size Guide
Raise a glass to a store that stood at the heart of West Virginia life for generations. Founded in Wheeling in 1847, Stone & Thomas grew from a downtown flagship into a familiar regional name known to many as Stone’s and The People’s Store. This pint glass brings that hometown retail story to a gathering, a quiet evening, or a collection devoted to department store history. Its subject recalls the changing storefronts and communities that shaped the company’s long run.
Stone & Thomas was a United States department store chain founded in 1847 in Wheeling, then in Virginia, by Elijah J. Stone and Jacob C. Thomas. Based in Wheeling, West Virginia, it became known as Stone’s and “The People’s Store,” and operated for about 150 years as a West Virginia institution. From its downtown Wheeling flagship, the chain expanded to Huntington in the 1910s and Charleston in 1928, later reaching other major West Virginia cities and locations in Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. In 1956 it bought Broida’s of Parkersburg and was briefly called Broida’s, Stone & Thomas. By the 1990s, it was focusing more on suburban stores and closing some older downtown locations. Falling profits led to its 1998 sale to Ohio-based Elder-Beerman for $38 million. By 1999, all Stone & Thomas stores had been converted to Elder-Beerman; six locations went to Peebles and three to Belk. The Huntington store was later purchased by Marshall University for its Department of Art & Design, which opened in the building on September 18, 2014.
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.
