Rare Bucket Bowl Ale goblet

Rare Bucket Bowl Ale goblet

C1745/50

Item Ref: 347

A rare single series airtwist ale goblet having a bucket bowl which is very finely engraved with a single hop and leaves with a pair of barley ears to the reverse,the multi spiral corkscrew twist leads to a folded conical foot.

Defying convention that dictates an ale glass to be a tall flute either with or without engraved hops and barley this small goblet is all too clear in its intended content and as such is a very rare example.

A superb small goblet with lovely dark metal which probably suggests it being early in the air twist series is in perfect original condition.

Height 6 1/2 ins 16.5 cm
