Description from the seller
Rare and unusual pair of tall-spired goblets.
Of English origin from the second half of the eighteenth century.
In blown, cut, engraved and gilded glass.
Stems of tubular shape, internally decorated with spirals in white tones, topped by inverted bell-shaped cups, richly decorated with carved vegetal garlands, intercalated by vertical bands ending in tassels, crowned by pearl-like spheres interspersed with stylized vegetal motifs, flanked by concentric gold bands, resting on crimped circular bases.
They show signs of use, small wear on the gold and small flaws on the interior of the cup edge and on the base.
Extremely rare and of rare beauty.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
