This pair of Victorian green glass wine glasses dates to the nineteenth century, specifically around 1850. Each piece is formed from coloured glass with a rich green hue and features a round funnel bowl adorned with vertical flute cutting. The stems incorporate hollow slice-cut shoulder knops above plain lower sections, leading down to conical circular feet with polished pontils. They stand 12.6 cm high, with a bowl diameter of 5.5 cm and a foot diameter of 6.1 cm. These wine glasses suit traditional table settings, cabinet displays, and English country house aesthetics. They sit comfortably on a sideboard top, a dining table, or inside a glass-fronted display cabinet. Collectors and enthusiasts of antique glassware use such items for formal dining or as decorative accents in a living room, dining room, or study. The traditional form and vibrant tone add historical character to both period and eclectic modern interiors.

FAQs

During the 19th century, coloured glassware became increasingly popular in Britain, particularly for serving white wines such as Riesling and Hock. The coloured glass masked the cloudiness often present in unfiltered wines of the period.

These pieces were hand-blown using glass infused with iron oxide or copper compounds to achieve the green tone. Stems were frequently drawn or joined separately and hand-faceted using lapidary grinding techniques.

Authentic Victorian examples often display hand-finished details such as polished pontil marks on the base, slight variations in scale from hand-blowing, and facet-cutting along the lower bowl and stem.

Displaying these glasses on open shelving, dining sideboard tops, or inside illuminated cabinets allows light to pass through the tinted glass. They can also be incorporated into contemporary table settings to add depth and historical character.

Antique glassware should always be washed by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid using dishwashers or rapid temperature changes, which can induce thermal shock and fracture vintage glass.
