Description

This is a Georgian, English, facet cut stem wine glass dating from the end of the 18th century, c1790.
The glass is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear to the rim of the foot consistent with some 200+ years of use. It has a polished out pontil mark on the under side of the foot.
The glass has a rounded funnel-shaped bowl measuring 5.8 cm (2.3 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is engraved and polished with a Neoclassical egg and dart (OXO) border under the rim and is cut with six petal flutes to the base. This gives the illusion of a six-petal flower or rose when viewed from above. This has caused some observers to claim Jacobite sympathy in the design of such glasses, in the theory that they show the Stuart six-petal rose. The bowl sits on a diamond facet cut stem with a medial knop. The stem ends in a conical foot which measures 7.7 cm (3.1 inches) in diameter. The glass is 15.2 cm (6.1 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration.

English lead glass weighing in at 195 g. (~ 7 oz.).
