French Cut Crystal Cordial or Liqueur Glass

A vintage pressed or wheel-cut crystal cordial glass, originating from France. This small-statured vessel features a flared conical bowl, a faceted or baluster-style stem, and a flat circular foot. The bowl is decorated with a series of vertical, leaf-like or lanceolate miter cuts that encircle the lower portion of the chalice, designed to catch light and showcase the clarity of the glass. The material appears to be high-quality lead crystal or potash glass, common in mid-20th-century French glassworks such as Baccarat or Saint-Louis, though no acid-etched mark is immediately visible on the base. The construction is a three-part mold or joined style, typical of artisanal glass production between 1920 and 1960. Condition is excellent with no visible chips or clouding (sickness), though minor surface wear on the underside of the foot suggests light domestic use. The clarity is consistent with superior French craftsmanship, intended for the formal service of after-dinner spirits.
