Georgian Etched Glass Rinser, Circa 1795

18th century
Description

This beautiful Georgian double-lipped wine rinser is etched with stars, always a sought-after design. It dates circa 1795. The lower section etched with stars and bordered by a fine diamond cut frieze.

Smooth pontil to the base.

Rinsers were filled with water and were used by diners to cleanse their wine glasses between courses of a meal. A wine glass could also be left to rest in the rinser, held in place by one of the lips, thereby keeping the glass cool in preparation for a chilled wine. These days they make beautiful rose vases or can equally be used for custard and other culinary preparations.

Rim diameter: 10cm / 4 inches.

Height: 10cm / 4 inches.

FAQs

Introduced in the late 18th century, glass rinsers were placed on dining tables filled with cold water to allow diners to rinse and cool their wine glasses between different wine courses.

During the Georgian period, glass rinsers were primarily blown from lead crystal or heavy flint glass, which allowed artisans to hand-cut and etch detailed geometric or floral patterns into the surface.

Authentic Georgian glass typically displays subtle grey or blue tones within the metal, a pontil mark on the base, minor irregularities from hand-blowing, and sharp hand-cut wheel engravings rather than modern molded seams.

A Georgian glass rinser functions effectively as an accent piece on a sideboard, a decorative holder for small floral arrangements, or a catch-all bowl on an entry console.

Antique glass should be hand-washed in tepid water using mild dish soap and a soft cloth, avoiding dishwashers, extreme temperature changes, and abrasive chemicals that cause thermal shock or clouding.
