Ale & Champagne Glasses
Ales
|
As
ale was very strong in the 18th century, it was drunk in smallish
glasses, usually of funnel shape, called "dwarf" ales.
The bowl was often engraved with hops and barley or made in wrythen
glass. Finer examples on airtwist and opaque twist stems are very
collectable, & would be found under Collectors'
Drinking Glasses. Again, we stock a variety of ale glasses, ranging in
price from £35 to c.£350, depending on their kind and their rarity.

Champagnes
|
18th
century champagnes were probably synonymous with ales, although
unengraved examples would be used. By the early 19th century "flutes"
became taller and narrower, often with fine cutting.
