Vintage Etched Crystal Wine Goblet with Flying Pheasant Motif

This item is a clear crystal or glass wine goblet featuring a distinctive baluster stem and wheel-etched decoration. The centerpiece of the bowl is a detailed etching of a pheasant in mid-flight, characterized by delicate frosted engraving to suggest feathers and movement. The bird is set within a stylized landscape of plants and trees that wrap partially around the circumference of the bowl. The vessel features a rounded tulip-shaped bowl supported by a short, ornate stem. The stem includes a vertically ribbed or gadrooned knop (bulbous section) between two hexagonal or faceted joints, leading down to a circular, flat foot. In terms of construction, the clarity of the glass suggests a lead crystal composition, likely from the mid-20th century. The etching technique shows a depth of craftsmanship common in European glassworks, particularly those in the Bohemian or German tradition of 'Jagdglass' (hunting glass). The condition appears excellent with no visible chips or cracks on the rim or base. There is no discernible maker's mark in the photograph, but the style is consistent with traditional sporting-themed glassware used for formal post-hunt gatherings. The height appears to be approximately 5 to 6 inches, typical for a white wine or smaller red wine serving.
