The body is designed with high, wide flat ribs, masterfully executed in precise diamond cutting. The confident verticality of the fluting creates a striking play of light, enhancing the brilliance and depth of the crystal. Every facet is sharp, deliberate, and elegantly proportioned.
The stem features a delicately executed faceted button (knop), adding structural harmony and balance to the silhouette. The cutting on the stem is equally meticulous, demonstrating the hand of an experienced master.
The upper section is adorned with refined gilded decoration depicting leafy motifs. The veins of the leaves are finely and intentionally drawn a subtle artistic detail that reflects the craftsmanship of the decorator. What may appear as slight textural variation within the gilding is inherent to the original hand-painted technique and should not be mistaken for a flaw.
The gilding remains beautifully preserved. The piece is in excellent condition, showing only minimal traces of time consistent with age. These do not detract from its aesthetic presence nor from its functionality.
A harmonious combination of strong geometric cutting and delicate botanical ornamentation — a glass that speaks both of technical mastery and artistic restraint. An elegant acquisition for a discerning collector or a refined table setting.
