Georgian Light Green Glass Roemer

19th century
Description

This is a Georgian, English, light green glass roemer (or römer) blown in the style of earlier Continental glasses and probably dating from the beginning of the 19th century, c1820.

The glass is in excellent condition for its age. It shows the age related wear and tear to the rim of the foot and the rim of the bowl consistent with some 200 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the apex of the underside of the foot.

The glass has an ovoid-shaped bowl, measuring 6.2 cm (2.4 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is plain and sits on a milled collar and a hollow stem. The stem is decorated with three applied raspberry prunts. The stem leads to a conical, spirally trailed foot which measures 6.5 cm (2.5 inches) in diameter. The glass has been trailed onto a plain foot, indicative of a late 18th or early 19th century glass. The glass is 12.3 cm (4.9 inches) in height and weighs 165 g. (~ 6 oz.). It is blown in lead glass. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. There is a collector's sticker on the glass.

FAQs

A roemer, or rummer, is a traditional style of wine drinking vessel developed in Northern Europe, characterised by a bulbous bowl, an open stem decorated with applied prunts, and a flared, thread-wound conical foot.

Historically, roemers were crafted from hand-blown potash glass, often referred to as forest glass or Waldglas, which acquired a natural pale green or olive tint due to iron impurities in the raw materials.

Authentic period roemers feature hand-blown irregularities such as air bubbles, a pontil scar on the base, hand-applied stem prunts, and fine glass thread trailing around the foot rim.

Position the glass on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or window sill where natural light can pass through the green tinted glass to highlight its profile and texture.

Wash carefully by hand using lukewarm water and mild liquid detergent, avoiding abrasive sponges, sudden temperature changes, or dishwashers that cause thermal shock and glass clouding.
