Vintage Gold Rimmed Champagne Flute with Etched Filigree
This is a vintage-style champagne flute characterized by a tall, narrow cylindrical bowl, a slender stem, and a circular foot. The glass is clear and features a prominent 22k or 24k gold-encrusted band around the rim, approximately one inch in height. This gold band is decorated with a raised, textured foliate or 'rambler' style motif. Directly below the gold rim is a delicate, monochromatic white or lightly etched acid-etched filigree pattern consisting of scrolling vine-like swags and dots that encircle the upper third of the bowl. The stem is faceted or hexagonal in shape, tapering slightly toward the bowl, suggesting a mid-to-late 20th-century manufacturing date, likely between the 1950s and 1970s. The craftsmanship exhibits typical mass-market luxury appeal of that era, reminiscent of patterns by makers such as Tiffin-Franciscan or Fostoria. Regarding condition, there is visible wear and thinning to the gold gilding along the top edge of the rim, indicating frequent use or abrasive cleaning. The glass itself appears free of major chips or cracks, although the clarity is slightly obscured by fingerprints and ambient reflections in the current environment.
