Tall Sherbet Coupe Appraisal

Etched Elegant Glass Champagne/Tall Sherbet Coupe

This item is a clear, elegant glass stemware piece, specifically a wide-bowl coupe typically used for champagne or tall sherbet service. The glass features a paneled, optic-style bowl with a flared rim, supported by a short, decorative pressed stem with an ornate knob or 'wafer' detail. The most striking element is the delicate floral and foliate wheel-etched or sandblasted design that wraps around the exterior of the bowl, depicting leafy sprays and clusters of small blossoms with fine linework. The glass exhibits high clarity and a thin, delicate rim indicative of quality mid-20th-century production, likely dating from the 1930s to 1950s Depression Glass or 'Elegant Glass' era. The construction shows a multi-part mold process for the stem joined to a blown bowl. No visible maker's marks or signatures are apparent in the image, which is common for companies like Cambridge, Fostoria, or Heisey. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or significant clouding, though some minor light surface scratches from age and use may be present upon physical inspection. The craftsmanship is refined, characteristic of American tableware manufacturers of the mid-century period, designed for formal dining and entertainment.
