Crystal Coupes Appraisal

Champagne Coupes

This set of three clear glass stemmed drinking vessels, commonly known as champagne coupes or cocktail glasses, showcases a classic design. Each glass features a wide, shallow bowl characteristic of the coupe style, which was highly popular during the mid-20th century, suggesting an estimated age from the 1930s to 1960s. The material is transparent clear glass, allowing for the full appreciation of the beverage served. A notable decorative feature is the intricate etched band encircling the rim of each bowl. This band exhibits a precise, geometric pattern, possibly a diamond-cut or cross-hatch design, adding a touch of elegance and visual texture. The stem of each glass is distinctly fluted or ribbed, running vertically from where it meets the bowl down towards the circular foot. This ribbed detail adds both aesthetic appeal and a comfortable grip. The bases are flat and circular, providing stability. From the provided images, the glasses appear to be in good overall condition, showing no immediately visible chips, cracks, or significant cloudiness. The clarity of the glass and the precision of the etched pattern indicate a good standard of manufacturing, likely machine-made due to the uniformity. There are no discernible maker's marks, signatures, or stamps visible on any of the pieces. While not high-end crystal, the craftsmanship suggests quality production for practical, yet decorative, everyday or special occasion use. The overall aesthetic hints at an Art Deco or Mid-Century influence, making them versatile for various decor styles.
