wheel engraved tumbler.
« on: September 07, 2024, 02:05:05 PM »
I couldn't remember the name of this type of 'fern' like engraving - Pteridomania apparently.     A recent charity shop acquisition - suppose it could be late C19 or equally early C20 - but whatever probably has some age, and flicking it gives a good ring, though not sure if that's the shape that makes the sound or the possibly inclusion of lead in the glass.    About 4.5 inches tall (c. 10.5 cms.).
