This complete harlequin set, dates to the mid-19th century, when Bohemian workshops perfected the art of coloured overlay crystal. Each tumbler is hand-blown and wheel-cut with the classic grape-vine motif, notably lighter in the hand than later revival examples. The combination of refined cutting, antique colour tones, and its place in Bohemian glass history makes this set a rare and highly decorative collectible. These glasses are well-proportioned and notably light in the hand, 220 gram one glass, compared to later examples, with cutting that highlights both brilliance and delicacy. Their mixed colour palette – including maroon (dark ruby), cobalt, emerald, amber, amethyst, and rose – makes them especially decorative as a complete set. These tumblers are ideal for collectors of antique glass or for use as distinctive decorative barware in both historic and contemporary interiors This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
