This Victorian 19th-century wine glass originates from England and dates to approximately 1880 during the period of Queen Victoria. Produced from lead crystal, the piece is rendered in a vivid peacock blue colour and stands at 13.6 cm in height with a bowl diameter of 6.2 cm and a foot diameter of 6.8 cm. The vessel comprises a flute-cut round funnel bowl featuring panelled detailing, supported by an elegant plain stem, and raised on a conical foot with a polished pontil. The item exhibits excellent overall preservation with no chips, cracks, or restoration. Suitable for display or practical use within a home today, this coloured table glass object sits suitably upon a sideboard top. The straightforward silhouette and rich hue provide a functional drinking vessel that aligns with Victorian and Gothic design sensibilities. The construction reflects late 19th-century English glass manufacturing techniques, during which peacock blue hues grew increasingly uncommon. Collectors of period glassware can integrate this example into existing displays of antique table settings or utilise it as a standalone decorative piece.

During the late 19th century, glassmakers produced vibrant coloured stemware, such as peacock blue and teal, to add visual depth and variety to formal dining settings.

These glasses were typically hand-blown using lead glass infused with metallic oxide additives, such as cobalt or copper, to achieve intense, uniform hues throughout the material.

Authentic pieces frequently display subtle hand-finishing marks, polished pontil scars on the underside of the base, and panel-cut or fluted decoration on the bowl.

Displaying vibrant antique stemware on a sideboard, open shelving, or a modern bar cart introduces rich accent tones and historical contrast against contemporary table settings.

Wash hand-crafted 19th-century glassware by hand in lukewarm water with mild liquid soap, avoiding dishwashers and extreme temperature changes to prevent cracking.
