This is a Georgian, English, plain stem dram glass dating from the middle of the 18th century.
The glass is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear to both the rim of the bowl and to the rim of the foot commensurate with some 250 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the underside of the foot.
The glass has an extruded trumpet-shaped bowl measuring 5.6 cm (2.2 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is plain and sits on an extruded thick plain stem and a conical, folded foot which measures 6.5 cm (2.6 inches) in diameter. The glass is 9 cm (3.6 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration.
English lead glass weighing in at 105 g. (~ 4 oz.).
Provenance: The property of the owners of Necton Hall, Necton, Breckland, Norfolk prior to its being demolished, and then by descent through the family.
