Topic: Tiny drinking glass for show.

Just 2,75 inches tall, the bowl is 1.25 across, Victorian I presume, what would you drink out of this ?

Perhaps it’s for someone trying to cut back I thought this maybe a travellers’ sample, I have read they are usually less than 3 inches tall, but if that was the case, I’m not sure the quality is there. You would think they’d have got the two sections of stem the same diameter in a sample?

Not sure it’s British or Irish either, looks like a smaller version of this flashed continental glass, especially with that cloud like engraving: https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,69594.msg387822.html#msg387822

They made a lot of glass like this in the Scandinavian countries  in the 1900's,I think Holmegard made a lot of similar pieces,along with many others in that part of the world.
