This clear lead glass rummer dates from the 19th century in the Georgian style and stands 13.2 cm high, 10.2 cm wide, and 10.2 cm deep. The clear glass construction supports a short stem and a circular foot, with wheel-engraved detailing on the bowl showing a sailing ship in full sail, a leaf garland, floral framing, and owner initials WIS inside a monogram medallion. The surface shows original condition with no cracks or repairs. In a contemporary home, this glassware suits placement on a sideboard top in a gentleman's library or dining space as part of a collection display. The warm reddish-brown timber tabletop beneath the glass shows circular wear marks and grain patterns, while the bright green outdoor garden foliage forms the backdrop behind the item.

FAQs

A rummer is a large style of drinking glass popular during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, characterised by a wide bowl, a short stem, and a heavy circular foot.

Traditional rummers were hand-blown from lead glass and frequently decorated using copper wheel-engraving techniques to create detailed motifs, monograms, or maritime scenes.

Authentic antique glass vessels often display subtle hand-blown irregularities, natural wear on the underside of the base, precise hand-engraving, and a pontil mark or polished pontil scar.

Displaying antique glass on a sideboard top, inside a glazed cabinet, or along a deep window sill allows natural light to illuminate the wheel-engraved details.

Hand-wash period glass vessels individually in lukewarm water using mild detergent, avoiding hot water, dishwashers, and abrasive cloths that could cause cracking or surface scratching.
