Lot 99: A Collection of Cut Lead Crystal Glassware including Stemware and Tumblers
This comprehensive suite of cut lead crystal glassware comprises a variety of stemware and barware. The collection includes champagne flutes, water and wine goblets in two sizes, liqueur or sherry glasses, tall highball or Collins tumblers, and lowball old-fashioned tumblers. Each piece features traditional deep-cut patterns, primarily a classic diamond-and-fan motif. The stemmed items possess faceted stems and all pieces feature star-cut bases, characteristic of high-quality hand-cut crystal. Several items retain original circular gold and black foil labels, suggesting an attribution to a reputable manufacturer such as Waterford or Edinburgh Crystal. The glassware displays high clarity and sharp, precise cutting throughout.
Condition report:
The glassware is in good overall condition, exhibiting high clarity and no signs of cloudiness or glass sickness. There are no major chips or cracks present, although minor flea bites or small nicks to the sharp edges of the cut decoration may be found upon close inspection, consistent with age and use.
