Lot 104: A Set of Six Cut Glass Wine Goblets
A set of six cut glass stemware vessels, designed as wine or port goblets. Each glass features a flared bucket-shaped bowl supported by a short, waisted stem with a central rounded knop, resting on a plain circular foot. The decoration consists of a deep-cut geometric pattern, featuring a broad band of diamond-cut cross-hatching around the lower section of the bowl. This is surmounted by a series of vertical mitre cuts or flutes that terminate below the plain rim. The underside of the bowl, visible through the stem, displays a multi-pointed star-cut base. The glass is clear and heavy, indicative of high lead crystal content. There are no visible maker marks, acid-etched signatures, or labels on the bodies or bases of the items.
Condition report:
The set appears to be in good condition overall. The crystal is clear with no visible signs of clouding or glass disease (photo 1). The rims and feet appear smooth with no evident chips or cracks in the overview. Due to the sharp nature of the diamond cutting, minor flea bites to the facet edges are possible, though none are specifically visible in the provided image.
