W. J. Hughes Corn Flower Glass is a Canadian business success story. The striking floral pattern was developed in 1912 by a young glass-cutter named William John Hughes. The Dufferin-born artisan grew his tableware creations into a national brand that has been enjoyed by Canadian families for over a century.

The delicate glassware was sold to working class families, at an affordable price, to add a bit of elegance and charm to their dinner tables. Both W. J. Hughes and his son-in-law Pete Kayser were committed to the basic principles of quality and affordability, and their innovative marketing during the 1950s and 1960s made Corn Flower a household name.
