Edinburgh Crystal 'Star' Pattern Wine Goblet

This is a fine lead crystal wine goblet manufactured by Edinburgh Crystal, featuring a classic tulip-shaped bowl. The glass is characterized by its brilliant clarity and high-quality craftsmanship, featuring hand-etched or 'cut' star motifs of varying sizes scattered across the mid-section of the vessel bowl. The construction includes a multi-faceted or fluted stem that transitions elegantly into a flat, circular foot, which provides stability and refracts light effectively. Physically, the item appears to be made of heavy lead crystal, which is consistent with the prestigious Scottish manufacturer's output from the mid-to-late 20th century. The etching style is a whimsical departure from more traditional geometric deep-cut patterns, suggesting a production date likely between the 1960s and 1980s. Notable features include the delicate balance of the stem and the precision of the star-shaped frostings. The visible condition appears excellent, with no apparent chips, cracks, or significant clouding (sickness) of the glass. The rim appears smooth and free of flea bites. While a maker's mark (often an acid-etched mark on the base) is not visible in the photo, the pattern and stem architecture are consistent with Edinburgh Crystal's specific 'Star' line. The piece exhibits a high level of finish with polished edges and a weighty presence indicative of luxury stemware.
