A Collection of Etched and Engraved Stemmed Glassware
More Information
This lot comprises two distinct sets of vintage glassware. The first group consists of six footed glasses of uniform size, each featuring a tapered bowl decorated with a continuous horizontal band of wheel-cut or acid-etched geometric motifs. The pattern includes a central Greek key meander bordered by zig-zag rick-rack lines. Each bowl is supported by a short, thick stem on a circular foot. The second group consists of five glasses with longer stems featuring a central knop. This group includes four flared bell-shaped glasses and one narrow U-shaped glass. All five are decorated with delicate acid-etched motifs depicting frosted leaves, trailing vines, and fern fronds. The construction of the stems and feet suggests a combination of mold-blown and hand-finishing techniques. No maker's marks, signatures, or labels are visible on any of the pieces.
