AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Items in the photo are antique Römer/Römer goblets, authentic early 18th-century goblets for white wine or Rhine wine. They are made of light, greenish glass. The stems of the goblets are built up with spiral glass, which is noticeable to the touch. They are probably dated to the period 1680–1700, origin Germany or the Dutch provinces, tulip-shaped. They vary in height and are in very good condition (Römer with berries). Features of antique Römer goblets are flaws and imperfections: antique glass often has small air bubbles trapped in the glass body, irregularities or slight asymmetry, due to the manual production process. On the bases of the goblets, in the center of the base, one can find a rough, circular mark. This is the place where the pontil rod was snapped off during the glass-blowing process — see the photos closely. These marks may indicate antiquity. I would also add that there are engraved inscriptions visible on the legs — I do not know what they mean.
