Lot 345: A Collection of Cut Lead Crystal and Mixed Glassware
A collection of assorted glassware comprising approximately twenty to thirty pieces of cut lead crystal and mixed decorative glass. The lot includes a variety of wine and water stemware featuring deep diamond, cross-hatch, and fan cutting patterns. One specific item is a modern balloon gin glass with a pink-tinted stem and base, bearing the printed script Gordons in black cursive with Premium Gin in smaller block capitals below. The assortment also contains a large glass bowl with heavy vertical ribbing and several plain glass tumblers. The styles and patterns observed are consistent with 20th-century British manufacturers such as Stuart and Webb Corbett, though no definitive acid-etched marks are clearly visible for specific attribution.
Condition report:
The items are in used, as-found condition with a significant accumulation of dust and surface smudging throughout the collection. No major cracks or large chips are immediately apparent, though minor flea bites or small nicks to the rims and sharp cut edges should be expected. The glass appears generally clear without signs of permanent internal clouding or chemical etching.
