Extremely Rare Colour Twist Toasting Glass

Extremely Rare Colour Twist Toasting Glass

1765/70

Item Ref: 836

A very fine and extremely rare colour twist toasting glass , having a tall trumpet bowl over a stem with a corkscrew twist having a central blue core and the last but one thread also in blue, a very unusual twist,

Height 8 1/4 ins 21 cm

This superb glass has all the required elements of a toasting glass , tall and with a thin stem , I suspect that the general thought that they were broken after a toast is highly unlikely especially with such a fine glass which would have been costly at time of manufacture. I am unable to find such a fine and tall example to compare with this one, such is it's rarity.

A magnificent example in perfect original condition.
