Title: Continental hollow stem firing glass
Post by: SNJ on February 18, 2023, 04:26:10 PM
Would anyone be able to suggest any information about this glass, please? Standing at 11.2cm, it is hand blown with a nicely wonky and uneven base and thick hollow stem. It is decorated with gilded floral swags although they're largely rubbed off. The form would suggest a firing glass with its thick foot although the hollow stem might preclude that function as the distance between the jagged pontil scar and internal air bubble is not very deep. I haven't really found many similar examples online but it may be continental.
