This clear lead glass wine glass originates from 18th-century England during the Georgian period of King George II. It has a round funnel bowl with rib moulding on the lower section, standing above a plain straight stem and terminating in a conical folded foot. The piece measures 13 cm high, 6.8 cm wide, and 6.8 cm deep, with a rim diameter of 4.8 cm. The glass surface displays clear transparency without chips, cracks, or restoration. Positioned on a sideboard top, this wine glass brings an English country house design vibe to interior spaces. The item serves as a functional drinking vessel or decorative display piece in a dining room, living area, or kitchen cabinet. The transparent material and traditional silhouette complement both historic and contemporary tabletop settings.

FAQs

A Georgian plain stem wine glass is a hand-blown drinking vessel manufactured in Britain during the mid-18th century, defined by its unadorned straight stem, ribbed or plain bowl, and conical folded foot.

English stemware of this period was constructed from lead crystal glass, known as flint glass, which incorporated lead oxide to increase refractive clarity, weight, and durability.

Authentic pieces feature a folded foot rim designed to prevent chipping, a rough pontil mark on the base where the glassmakers rod was detached, and minor internal imperfections or greyish tint characteristic of period lead glass.

Antique stemware can be displayed in illuminated glazed cabinets, placed on a sideboard top alongside period decanters, or used as single decorative accents on open shelving.

Antique lead glass should be hand-washed individually in lukewarm water using mild dish detergent and dried immediately with a lint-free cloth to avoid thermal shock and water spotting.
