The links to the Passua Glass Museum and the Neuwelt goblet w/cover informative and much appreciated. Thank you.
Generally cut glass falls into 1 of 3 categories for me.
!. CUT GLASS- some areas cut, some not [as blown]
2. RICH CUT GLASS- cut allover [except areas to be engraved] top to bottom.
3. SPARE NO EXPENCE CUT GLASS- the Prince Of Wales set by Perrin & Geddes a good example of this type.
The QV bowls I think rich cut bordering on spare no expence, if the rims cut, fully the latter. The step cutting and even the foot cutting O.K. for the period in England. According to Spillmans book WHITE HOUSE GLASSWARE it became fashionable in the mid 1830s for finger bowls to be colored, usually green. Hock glasses as well, frequently a light green. The color of the beverage or water not to be noticed?
I have re read portions of Hajdamach's book concerning the period 1800-1850. Of special interest is page 66 concerning The Dudley Glassworks of Thomas Hawkes. Specifically a quoted entry from the Worcestershire Directory of 1840, which described the works. The last sentence of this entry reads as follows: "The splendid gold enamel desert service, furnished to the Corporation of London on her Majesty's first visit to the Guildhall on the 9th November, 1837, was manufactured here.
As far as Pellatt's remarks on lighting and the effect on uranium glass, while the desired effect may be lost, I think color still there. The two photos here illustrate this quite well. The shaded foot and stem might as well be any yellow glass, while the directly lit top seems to glow.
