Four Continental Engraved Gilt Green Glass Roemers, Glasses, c.1900

About the Item

An exquisite set of four Roemer glasses, circa 1900. Each in bright green glass engraved and gilded with scrolling flowers and graduated gold rims. All four in mint condition. These glasses are probably from the Netherlands, but may also be German or English. Roemer glasses were a form of glass that originated mainly in the Rhineland and the Netherlands from the 15th through the 17th century. The hollow base of the glass was built up by coiling strands of molten glass around a conical core, and the glass was usually green. The form continued for centuries afterwards, with later examples featuring more fanciful decorations. In England, the word Roemer was anglicized to become "rummer", and English variants were produced from the 18th century onwards.

In 19th century France, the art of glassmaking experienced a renaissance inspired by the rich history and heritage of ancient techniques. Antique glasses from this era are not only masterpieces of craftsmanship, but also important cultural artefacts that reflect the aesthetics and lifestyle of the time.
