This is a set of six mouth-blown, late 19th century Bristol green wine glasses with knopped stems.
The glasses are in excellent condition for their age. They show age related wear and tear to the rims of the feet consistent with some 100 plus years of use. The feet have polished out pontil marks to the underside.
The glasses have funnel-shaped bowls measuring 6.5 cm (2.6 inches) in diameter at the rims. The bowls are plain and sit on double collars and thin capstan stems with medial angular knops. The stems lead to conical feet which measure 6.8 cm (2.7 inches) in diameter. The glasses are 13 cm. (5.2 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious signs of restoration. Dimensions vary slightly from glass to glass as should be expected of mouth-blown glassware.
Lead glass, each weighing in at 155 g. ( ~ 5 1/2 oz.) each.
