Description

Technical Description

Date & Origin

Val St Lambert, Seraing, Belgium. Leopold III, c1940.

Condition

Excellent. No chips, cracks or restoration.

Dimensions

Height: 18.2 cm

Bowl Diameter: 7.2 cm

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.

Val Saint Lambert is a renowned Belgian crystal manufacturer founded in 1826 near Liege, famous for producing high-quality blown and cut glassware, particularly during the Art Deco and mid-century periods.

Cased glass involves fusing a layer of coloured glass over a clear crystal base before skilled artisans hand-cut geometric patterns through the top layer to reveal the clear crystal underneath.

Authentic pieces often feature acid-etched signatures on the base, crisp and precise hand-cut facets with sharp edges, and heavy lead crystal composition that produces a clear, resonant ring when tapped.

These colourful glasses can be displayed openly on bar carts or in glass-fronted cabinets to add vibrant jewel tones and textural brilliance to a dining room or living space.

Crystal should be washed gently by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent and dried immediately with a lint-free linen cloth to prevent water spots and protect the delicate stems.
