About the Item
Rare Set of George III English Crystal Wine Glasses. Set of seven glasses with "Air Twist" stems. Made in England circa 1790.
A refined set of seven George III period wine glasses, expertly handblown in England circa 1790. Each glass features an elegant trumpet bowl atop a strikingly intricate air-twist stem, showcasing a double-helix and mesh lattice motif suspended within the clear crystal- an iconic technique of the 18th century.
The wide, conical foot provides balance and grace, with subtle signs of pontil scarring to attest to their handcrafted nature.
These glasses exhibit a brilliant clarity and lightness characteristic of the finest Georgian glassware, perfect for both display and special use. An outstanding example of late 18th-century English craftsmanship, these glasses remain in excellent antique condition with gentle wear consistent with age.
