A set of six 19th century Stevens & Williams glass goblets. Designed by Frederick Carder and probably executed by Joshua Hodgetts. Large ribbed ogee bowls with intaglio-cut rococo revival scrolls above a facet cut shoulder knop and slice cut inverted baluster knops containing central air tears. Matching intaglio cut feet. Very unusual and rare to find a complete set of six.
You can see this exact style of cutting by Joshua Hodgetts for Stevens and Williams on page 391 of ''The Decanter An Illustrated history from 1650'' by Andy McConnell.
