Description

This is a rare, large, late Georgian, English, facet cut stem wine goblet or large wine glass dating from the second half of the 18th century, c1780.

The bowl is decorated with a band of Neoclassical swags and tails formed from polished printies and engraved stars. The lower third of the bowl is scale cut. The bowl sits on a hexagonally facet cut stem. The stem ends in a conical foot which measures 9.2 cm (3.7 inches) in diameter. The glass is 15.7 cm (6.3 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. There is some slight roughness on the edge of the foot at one point.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Popularised in the late eighteenth century, Georgian facet-cut stemware features hand-cut geometric facets, typically diamond or hexagonal shapes, along the central stem to catch light, often paired with wheel-engraved decorative borders.

Period goblets were hand-blown using lead crystal glass, known for its optical clarity and weight. The pieces were subsequently detailed using copper-wheel engraving and abrasive lapidary wheel cutting.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit minor hand-blowing asymmetries, a polished or raw pontil mark on the underside of the base, subtle operational wear on the foot rim, and the weight characteristic of historical lead glass formulations.

Antique stemware can be displayed on a sideboard top, curated within a glazed cabinet, or incorporated into formal dining table settings to introduce historical texture and light refraction.

Antique lead glass should be washed individually by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent. Avoid dishwashers, sudden temperature shifts, and abrasive sponges that could scratch the soft surface.
