Drinking set (9) - Rare and antique French set of 9 wine glasses

Splendid and rare set composed of 9 large wine glasses, entirely handmade in France at the beginning of the 20th century (circa 1900). The glasses are distinguished by a striking, solid and elegant design: the bowl features fluted facets (cannelures/gaufre) that create magnificent play of light as they reflect the beverages. The stem is embellished in the center by a diamond-cut faceted knot (or carved ring), a typical element of French artisanal glassblowing of the era, which ensures a firm grip and gives a timeless character. Being antique glassware worked by hand, each piece is unique: tiny air bubbles are visible in the glass and there are very slight, imperceptible variations in size from one glass to another, a distinctive sign of genuine handcrafted manufacture. The round, wide, clear base gives these glasses excellent stability as well as a striking presence on the table. The absence of marks or stamps under the base is entirely consistent with French production from the late 19th century to the very early 20th century, preceding the widespread use of acid-etched marks. Complete and perfect as a set for both collectors and anyone looking to adorn a vintage table with authentic pieces of great charm and generous capacity.
