18th C Georgian Jelly Glass with Bell Bowl Cushion Knop Hand Blown, Ca 1780
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a very good hand-blown, English mid-Georgian Jelly glass, dating to the last quarter of the 18th century, circa 1780. These glasses are very collectable. It is made from English lead glass which is relatively heavy and has a soft grey colour. The glass has a bell bowl above a flattened cushion knop which forms a rudimentary stem. The stem leads to a conical foot having a rough snapped off pontil mark to the underside. There are no chips, cracks or any evidence of restoration. Nominal dimensions: Bowl rim diameter: 2.44 inches Foot diameter: 2.27 inches height: 4 inches For similar Jelly Glasses see pages 252 to 254 in the book; Eighteenth Century English Drinking Glasses...
