Georgian Irish Cordial Wine Drinking Glass thick Cotton Twist Stem, Ca 1770
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a superb hand-blown example of an Irish made, mid-Georgian, cordial wine drinking glass with a thick double series opaque twist (DSOT) stem, dating from the middle of the 18th century, circa 1765 to 1770.

The glass has the usual striations, inclusions and tiny bubbles you would expect to see in 18th Century glass, which gives these glasses their unique charm.
This glass has a bucket bowl which sits on a tall, unusually thick, double series opaque or cotton twist...
