A beautiful set of 4 small crystal dessert wine or liqueur glasses. These vintage glasses are believed to date to the 1960's or 70's. These lovely and quite exquisite glasses are perfect for after dinner liqueur or for a little dessert wine. They hold approximately 100ml each. They have a very nice ring when 'dinged' and feel very elegant and delicate to hold.
The glasses have a lovely, elegant shape with hand etched and engraved patterning around the bowl of vines, grapes and lines. The bowl is an interesting shape. It has a slightly pumpkin type shape where the bowl has been moulded into 'segments'. It tapers slightly, being slightly narrower at the top than at the widest part of the mid bowl. The top rim is fine and does not have a rolled top. The stem is beautifully shapely and it looks as if the stem and foot were attached separately during manufacture, suggesting these were hand made and not moulded as one piece.
Condition wise these glasses are in very good vintage condition with no chips, cracks or other damage, but these are old glasses and are sold as used and may have minor signs of wear.
Each glass measures approximately 5.6cm in diameter across the top and is 10.2cm tall. They have a lovely wide pedestal foot and are very stable.
