Georgian Triple Annular Knop Heavy Baluster Wine Goblet

18th century
Description

This is a Georgian, English, heavy baluster stem wine goblet dating from the beginning of the 18th century, c1730.

The glass is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear to the rim of the foot commensurate with some 300 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the underside of the foot.

The glass has a rounded funnel-shaped bowl measuring 7.9 cm (3.1 inches) in diameter at the rim. The bowl is plain and sits on a cushion knop above a triple annulated knop above a piece of plain stem with an embedded air tear and a basal knop. There is a small air tear, deliberately positioned in the middle of the base of the bowl, and another to the side which is probably accidental. The stem ends in a conical, folded foot which measures 9 cm (3.6 inches) in diameter. The glass is 17.5 cm (7 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. There is an unburst bubble in the metal of the bowl, a couple in the annulated knop, and a couple in the metal of the foot, all dating from manufacture.

English lead glass weighing in at 305 g. (~ 11 oz.).

FAQs

Georgian baluster wine glasses, produced primarily in Britain between 1690 and 1730, feature sturdy stems inspired by architectural balusters. They are constructed from heavy lead glass, often incorporating decorative knops, tear-shaped air inclusions, and folded or domed conical feet.

These pieces were hand-blown using lead crystal, a formulation introduced to English glassmaking by George Ravenscroft. Stems were formed by adding and shaping gather sections to create knops, while bowls were attached separately before being finished with a hand-snapped pontil base.

Authentic pieces exhibit noticeable weight due to high lead content, a greyish or dark hue under specific lighting, and slight asymmetrical irregularities from hand-blowing. Look for rough or ground-down pontil marks beneath the foot and natural wear rings around the base rim.

Antique goblets can be displayed as standalone decorative objects on sideboards, arranged inside illuminated glazed cabinets, or integrated into table settings alongside contemporary dinnerware to create tactile historical contrast.

Wash by hand using tepid water and mild liquid detergent, avoiding dishwasher use entirely to prevent clouding or thermal shock. Dry immediately with a lint-free microfibre cloth and store upright on stable shelving rather than suspended by the foot.
