Jacobite wine glasses are 18th-century English drinking vessels engraved with political symbols supporting the Stuart claim to the British throne. Common motifs include the six-petalled rose, thistles, oak leaves, and subtle coded emblems.

These glasses were hand-blown using a high-lead glass mixture, producing clarity and sound. Stems were cut by hand with diamond or hexagonal facets on abrasive stone wheels before copper-wheel engraving was applied to the bowl.

Authentic Georgian lead glass typically exhibits a subtle greyish tone, faint striations from hand blowing, and a ground or raw pontil mark beneath the foot. Engraved motifs show natural micro-wear consistent with historic age rather than uniform modern chemical etching.

Display stemware in an illuminated glass cabinet or on a polished wooden sideboard where light can refract through the faceted stem. Placing clear crystal against dark timber or neutral backgrounds highlights the wheel-engraved detailing.

Wash stemware individually by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent, avoiding extreme temperature shifts that cause thermal shock. Towel dry immediately with a soft microfibre cloth to prevent water marks.
