£325    $435    €381
This is a rare Georgian, English multi spiral air twist wine glass dating from the middle of the 18th century, c1750.
 
The glass is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear 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 a trumpet-shaped bowl measuring 6.8 cm (2.7 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is plain and sits on a multi spiral air twist stem which has a medial vermicular collar. Vermicular collars are scarce on Georgian glasses and even rarer on trumpet bowl glasses. The stem ends in a conical foot which measures 7.4 cm (3 inches) in diameter. The glass is 16 cm (6.4 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. There are a couple of unburst bubbles in the metal of the bowl which date from manufacture.
 
Lead glass weighing in at 205 g. (~ 7 oz.).
