The stem has a multiple spiral air twist (MSAT) extending into the base of the bowl, and features a medial bladed collar. Conical foot with rough, snapped pontil. Fine color, striations, and tooling marks.
Condition is excellent with no problems, flaws, or restoration. The height is 6 5/8", a bowl diameter of 2 1/2", and a foot diameter of 2 3/4".
NOTE: On the relatively rare occasions that an air twist glass is encountered with a medial collar, the collar is almost always of the vermiform (wavy) type. Bladed collars are very rare.
