A rare find from a prominent Atlanta estate, these Royal Leerdam 'Contessa' claret glasses are a masterclass in mid-century Dutch functionalism. Produced during an era of significant design transition at the Leerdam factory, the pattern features sharp vertical bowl cuts and a multi-faceted architectural stem that leads to a brilliant starburst base.
Far from the delicate, fragile crystal of the era, these pieces possess a satisfying, substantial weight—a testament to their high lead-crystal quality. They are as much a piece of European design history as they are functional stemware for the modern table.
