This pair of late 19th-century wine glasses originates from the Josephinenhütte factory in Silesia, created during the period of Queen Victoria in a Georgian Revival style. Each lead crystal glass features a clear ovoid bowl with slice and notch cutting to the lower section, standing upon a hexagonal slice-cut and notch-cut stem containing internal white multi-ply spirals surrounded by pairs of green spiral threads. The design includes plain circular conical feet, smooth polished rims, and brilliant reflective transparency throughout the clear and green glass. They measure 19 cm in height with rim diameters of 7 cm and foot diameters of 7.1 cm, weighing 285 grams for the pair. Placed on a sideboard top in an English Country House setting, these glasses bring period elegance to a dining room or living space for formal dining or display. The condition is excellent, showing no chips, cracks, or restoration across either piece. The clear glass pairs with the vibrant green and white interior threads to create a striking visual contrast on the table. Each stem tapers smoothly toward the base, resting upon a flat circular foot that provides stable balance.

FAQs

Colour twist stemware originated in 18th-century Britain, featuring intricate spirals of coloured and white enamel glass encased within clear lead crystal stems.

Craftsmen placed sticks of opaque coloured glass into a cylindrical mould, poured molten clear lead glass over them, and pulled and twisted the rod to form the inner pattern before attaching the bowl and foot.

Authentic period pieces feature pontil marks on the base, minor irregularities in the twist pattern, heavy lead crystal weight, and slight wear to the underside of the broad foot.

Position them inside illuminated display cabinets, arrange them on a dining table setting, or set them atop a wooden sideboard to catch ambient light.

Wash stemware individually by hand in lukewarm water using mild dish liquid, avoiding hot temperatures and dishwasher cleaning to prevent clouded glass or damage.
