A Georgian Antique Double Series Opaque Twist Wine Glass with Ogee Bowl (Code 9343)

A Georgian English wine glass with an opaque twist stem. The stem is quite an unusual form with a pair of loose multi-ply corkscrews outside a central multi-ply tight ribbon corkscrew. The lead glass material is also of particulaly good quality for this period and brighter than usual. It has a large conical foot with a rough snapped pontil. The bowl is of ogee form and has moulded flutes over the lower bowl and shoulders. A nice example.
