Technical Description

An antique Georgian sweetmeat glass with a double ogee bowl above a multi spiral opaque twist stem with shoulder and basal knops. Sits on a radial moulded conical foot.


What great piece of history with its own unique story to tell. It has air spirals in the stem, however this is accidental and not part of a mixed twist. There is some undissolved silica and soot in the bowl and stem as shown, which all comes from the manufacturing techniques of the time.
