Lot 705: A Trio of Cut Lead Crystal Whisky Tumblers
This set of four lead crystal brandy balloons is decorated in the Lismore pattern, a design closely associated with Waterford Crystal. Each glass features a bulbous bowl with a band of deep diamond-cut crosshatching to the lower section, topped by a series of vertical mitre cuts. The upper portion of the bowl tapers towards a plain, polished rim. The glasses are supported by short, thick stems on plain circular feet. The high degree of clarity and the precision of the multi-faceted cutting are characteristic of premium lead crystal manufacture.
