Georgian Rummer Drinking Glass Hand Blown with Ball Knop, English circa 1810

About the Item

This is a very good English "RUMMER" Drinking Glass, which were originally drinking glasses used in English taverns in the late 18th and early 19th century. The glass is hand blown and made from heavy lead glass, having a soft greyish colour. It has a large "ogee" open conical shaped bowl, over a basal knife knop leading to a short thick solid stem with a ball knop above a nice conical foot, having a snapped off pontil below. The glass has the usual striations, inclusions and tiny bubbles you would expect to see in 18th century hand blown glass, which gives these glasses their unique charm. There are two small grit inclusions to the lower bowl. Dimensions: Rim diameter 4.2 inches Foot rim diameter 3.4 inches Height 5.5 inches. No damage. The glass has a very good ring to it when tapped with a finger. .
