Cut-to-Clear Crystal Cordial/Liqueur Glasses

This pair of cordial or liqueur glasses features a distinctive 'cut-to-clear' design, a technique where a layer of colored glass is cut away to reveal clear glass beneath. One glass is a vibrant teal blue, and the other is a rich cranberry red. Both glasses share an identical pattern of starburst and fan-like cuts, characteristic of traditional brilliant cut glass. The bowls are substantial and rounded, tapering slightly towards the stem. The stems are clear, slender, and faceted, connecting the colored bowls to clear, circular bases. The bases appear delicate but sufficient to support the glasses. All components (bowl, stem, base) are made of glass, likely lead crystal given the brilliance and cutting work. Each glass stands approximately 4-5 inches tall, with a bowl diameter of about 2 inches. There are no visible chips, cracks, or repairs on either glass, suggesting they are in excellent vintage or near-new condition. The craftsmanship indicates a mid-20th century to contemporary manufacturing period, typical of European (e.g., Bohemian, Polish) or American cut glass production. The colorful overlay and intricate cutting suggest they are intended for serving spirits or as decorative pieces. No manufacturer's marks or signatures are discernible from the provided images, which is common for smaller glassware.
