Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: The World is Made of Glass Ltd.

This is a Georgian, English, hop and barley engraved plain stem ale glass dating from the middle of the 18th century, c1750.
 
The glass is in excellent condition for its age. This means, of course, that it shows age related wear and tear to the rim of the foot consistent with some 250 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the bottom of the foot.
 
The glass has an extended ogee-shaped bowl measuring 6 cm. (2.4 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is engraved with a single hop flower to one side and a pair of barley ears in saltire (crossed) on the reverse. The bowl sits on a plain stem and a conical, folded foot which measures 7.3 cm. (2.9 inches) in diameter. The glass is 18.5 cm (7.4 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration.
