Each glass is finished with horizontal cut bands, a short knopped stem, and a circular foot with deeply cut radial decoration.

Dating to the late Georgian period, these beautifully proportioned glasses display the decorative cutting and craftsmanship associated with early 19th-century British and Irish glassmaking. Their smaller scale makes them particularly suitable for serving wine, sherry, or port.

Set of six, with a seventh glass included as an extra due to minor rim wear.
