Georgian English Hand-blown Double Series Opaque Twist Wine Glass

19th century
Description

This is a Georgian English mouth-blown double series opaque twist wine glass dating from the middle part of the 18th century, c1765.

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 250 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the bottom of the foot.

The glass has an ogee-shaped bowl measuring 5.3 cm (2.1 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is plain and sits on a double series opaque twist stem consisting of nine enamel "cotton" strands wound around a central lace twist. The stem leads to a conical foot which measures 7.2 cm (2.9 inches) in diameter. The glass is 14 cm (5.6 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious signs of restoration. There is a collector's sticker to the upper side of the foot and an old price tag to the underside.

Lead glass weighing in at 140 g. ( ~ 5 oz.).
