Description

This is a set of six mouth-blown 19th century Bristol green wine glasses with knopped stems.

The glasses are in excellent condition for their age. They show age related wear and tear to the rims of the feet consistent with some 100 plus years of use. The feet have rough pontil marks to the underside.

The glasses have funnel-shaped bowls measuring 6.8 cm (2.7 inches) in diameter at the rims. The bowls are plain and sit on double collars and capstan stems with medial angular knops. The stems lead to conical feet which also measure 6.8 cm (2.7 inches) in diameter. The glasses are 13.5 cm. (5.4 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious signs of restoration. Dimensions vary slightly from glass to glass as should be expected of mouth-blown glassware.

Lead glass, each weighing in at 155 g. ( ~ 5 1/2 oz.) each.

Bristol green glass is a distinctive deep emerald-green glassware produced predominantly in the English city of Bristol during the 18th and 19th centuries, gaining widespread popularity throughout the Victorian era.

Victorian glassware was typically free-blown or mould-blown using high-potash or lead glass compositions, with stems often formed using applied collars, knops, or pressed glass techniques before being hand-finished.

Authentic pieces often exhibit pontil marks on the base, minor surface bubbles, tool striations, and slight irregularities in shape and tone characteristic of hand-manufacturing processes prior to modern mass production.

Antique green stemware can be displayed on open shelving, utilized for formal dining table settings, or contrasted against neutral tableware to add historical depth and rich colour to a modern scheme.

Antique glass should be hand-washed gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent and soft cloths, avoiding harsh chemicals, sudden temperature changes, and dishwasher cycles to protect the delicate surface and prevent staining.
