"Engraved Crystal White Wine Glasses, Alsatian Wine, Rhine Glass Called "roemer""
Seven crystal glasses engraved with a Greek key pattern, stylized fleur-de-lis, and a monogram. Green stems. Beautiful ring.
In the 19th century, Alsatian wines were often acidic and greenish in color. The green stem of this glass was intended to create the illusion that the reflection came from the glass and not the wine itself.
Height 17 cm – diameter 8 cm.
Very good condition.
Circa 1950.
