Historical Context
 
Otherwise known as a ‘rhine wine glass’, the hock was a popular choice of stemware throughout the brilliant-cut period from 1876 to roughly 1920. They continued to be made to high standards in Europe and Britain into the mid-20th century and remain a choice glass today. This fine-quality, hand-cut crystal could take as long as nine days in the lehr for cooling, to reduce the risk of the piece shattering while being cut.
 
With stunning refractivity and an array of vivid hues available these glasses are the perfect entertainment pieces, collect them in singles, pairs or sets to create your look.
