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.
