FAQs

A Roemer, or Romer, is a traditional style of Rhine wine goblet originating in Central Europe, recognised by its cupped bowl, hollow or knopped stem adorned with prunts, and a wide flared foot. Medieval Revival examples from the late 19th century reinterpreted these historic forms for Victorian table settings.

Historic Roemers were traditionally crafted from forest glass (Waldglas), which derived its distinctive green tint from iron impurities present in wood ash and sand. Late 19th-century revival pieces were hand-blown using green pot metal glass and decorated with individually applied glass prunts and ribbed pedal bases.

Authentic revival pieces dating from 1880 to 1910 feature hand-blown construction details such as a snapped or ground pontil mark underneath the foot, slight asymmetry, hand-applied glass decorations, and a subtle spiral texture on the flared base rather than uniform machine seams.

Antique green Roemers can be displayed inside a glazed china cabinet, styled on open kitchen shelving, or arranged on a wooden drinks trolley alongside modern decanters to add texture and historical contrast.

Clean antique stemware individually by hand using lukewarm water and a gentle liquid soap, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners and thermal shock from hot water. Towel dry immediately with a lint-free microfibre cloth and store upright in a dry location away from high traffic areas.
