Gegraveerde beker (huwelijksgift) - Gobelet de forme...

This object is an antique engraved glass, specifically a tulip-shaped goblet (gobelet de forme tulipe or tumbler). This type of glassware was especially popular in the late 18th century (circa 1770–1800). Such goblets were often manufactured in France, Germany (Bohemia), or the Northern Netherlands. Dimensions: H= 9.2 cm - W= 7.3 cm - D= 5.6 cm Weight: 160.80 grams Condition: fully intact - no damage Shape: The glass has a broad, slightly flaring rim (tulip shape) that is typical of French and Central European wedding or monogram goblets from the Empire and Restoration periods. Decoration: At the top there is a geometric border with triangles, dots and floral motifs that have been ground into the glass with a wheel engraving (radgravure). Monogram: Centered on the glass is a graceful, calligraphic initial "D", placed within a detailed cartouche or shield with fringe. This indicates that the glass was made to order as a personal gift, for a wedding. Shipping method: this lot is excellently packaged and shipped via DHL or UPS through Catawiki's Smart Shipping
