Spectacular
stemware made by
Dorflinger Glass Co.
sometime between 1905 and 1921. Probably decorated by
Honesdale as they have
been known to use this same type of flower & vine gilt pattern.
These are decorated with a thick gold cornflower decorative
band, they also have a thin parallel gold band below, and around
the glass base or foot. The edge of the rim also has gilt
[mostly worn]. The inside of each bowl is ribbed or paneled. The
smaller cordial glass has 20 panels, the bigger glasses have 11
panels. These panels or "ribs" can only be felt from the inside,
as the outer side is smooth. Tapped lightly, they ring
beautifully. |
