Description

Technical Description
A superb pair of 19th-century 'vaseline' wine glasses. They have ogee bowls with a band of cut and engraved festoons with engraved fleur-de-lis above each swag. A band of slice cuts at the base of the bowl above angular knop stems. Conical feet with snapped pontils. We have included a single picture of one of the glasses photographed under UV light. As you can see the effect is dramatic.
Comments
Vaseline glass is a term for the transparent yellow through yellow-green glass that owes its colour to the uranium content (which is perfectly safe to use). A rare set of glasses which we don't recall seeing before.
