This is a Georgian, English, double series opaque twist wine glass dating from the second half of the 18th century, c1765.

The bowl sits on a double series opaque twist stem consisting of a pair of white enamel cords wound around a spiral gauze. The stem ends in a conical foot which measures 7.5 cm (3 inches) in diameter. The glass is 14.7 cm (5.9 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration.
