This Georgian light baluster wine glass dates to the 18th century, specifically the period of George II around 1750, originating from England. Formed from clear lead glass, it comprises a large round funnel bowl set above a multi-knopped stem containing small cushion knops, air-beaded elements, a solid knop, an inverted baluster, and an air-beaded basal knop, terminating in a conical foot. The entire object is clear in colour with polished transparent surfaces showing no chips, cracks, or restoration. Standing 19.3 cm high, the glass operates as a refined display item for a gentleman's library or sits neatly atop a sideboard in a modern interior.

A light baluster wine glass is an 18th-century drinking vessel characterised by a lighter, more refined knopped stem compared to the heavier early Georgian balusters produced during the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

These glasses were hand-blown using English lead glass, also known as flint glass, which introduced clarity, weight, and light refraction to luxury tableware.

Authentic period glassware typically displays slight hand-blown asymmetry, minor air inclusions, a pontil scar on the underside of the base, and soft wear marks on the bottom rim.

Historical glass goblets can be arranged inside illuminated glass cabinets, displayed on a curated dining room sideboard, or featured on a bar cart alongside modern decanters.

Hand wash individual pieces in warm water with a mild detergent using soft cloths, avoiding automated dishwashers, harsh chemical cleansers, and thermal shock.
