Baccarat - Wine glass (6) - Crystal

6 Antique crystal glasses from Baccarat, France. These belong to the basic tableware "Balloon" with cut "Renaissance. They contain magnesium as It gets fluorescent under UV 365 nm light. Magnesium was used to clear glass from around 1820 until 1920, which dates the glasses to that period. In the bottom of the glasses, you will see the cut from the blowing stick either as a line or as a T. You will see many bobbles and imperfections in the glasses which suggest early models. For the above reasons, we date the glasses to be from 1880 to around 1900. One of the glasses has a small chip at the feet.
