AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The wine tumbler presented in photos was created around 1750's in Western Europe region. Designed with an atypical bell shape, this goblet was handblown and copper wheel engraved by hand with two symbols (anchor and deer) most probably originating from a region where the sea meets rocky mountains. Among the clear bell sound wich the glass emanates when softly hit, its lead glass material has all the usual characteristics of 18th century glass (gray colour, air bubbles and inclusions). Its solid foot was intentionally made with an interior arangement of air bubbles and its base lack the pontil scar because it was cut/polished right after blowing. Glass shape resembles much the shape of a fop glass or trick glass from c1750, a glass wich originated from The Netherlands and was designed with holes to trick the man/woman who drinks from it to spill the liquid.
Dimensions: Height - 12cm, Top diameter - 10cm, Base diameter - 5.5cm, Weight - 230g.
