This Georgian period wine glass originates from England and dates to around 1790 during the reign of King George III. The piece is fashioned from turquoise green glass, showcasing a tight rib moulded bucket bowl above a solid ball knop, a basal baluster knop, and a conical rib moulded foot. Notable physical details include a small air bubble visible within the bowl, while the overall condition is excellent with no chips, cracks, or restoration. Measuring 13.5 cm in height with a bowl diameter of 6.7 cm, a foot diameter of 6.7 cm, and a weight of 189 grams, it is a compact drinking vessel. In a contemporary home, this Georgian glass serves as a striking decorative accent on a sideboard top in a dining room or living area. Collectors of 18th-century English glass use such specimens for display purposes, integrating them into traditional table settings or cabinet exhibitions to highlight period craftsmanship and colour variation.

FAQs

Rib moulded glassware from the Georgian era refers to hand-blown glass vessels featuring vertical ridges formed by blowing molten glass into a patterned mould prior to final shaping.

Glassmakers utilised lead or potash glass formulations combined with metallic oxide additives, such as copper compounds, to produce turquoise and green tones.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit a snapped or ground pontil scar under the foot, minor enclosed air bubbles, slight structural asymmetry, and base wear consistent with age.

Position the glass on a sideboard top, inside a lighted display cabinet, or on a deep window sill to allow natural light to highlight the colour and moulded texture.

Clean the glass gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild detergent, avoiding dishwashers, sudden temperature changes, and abrasive materials.
