| A rare English Georgian wine glass dating to c1780. A drawn tulip bowl and a plain stem mounted on a wide conical foot with rough pontil. What makes this glass rare is the colour and the size. Its a beautiful light emerald green colour and at 6 Ό tall it towers over later Bristol green glasses in a similar style. No doubt the later glasses were based on this form. English lead glass. Perfect with a collectors label to the foot (CJC 585). Height: Just under 6 Ό Rim Diameter: 2 1/4 Foot Diameter: 3 The last photo shows the glass alongside a slightly later 4 ½ Bristol green glass in a similar style for colour and size comparison. 18th century English glasses in any colour other than the traditional Bristol Green are rarely seen. | ||
