Etched Crystal Coupe or Cocktail Glass, Floral Design

This item is a clear crystal or high-quality glass coupe or cocktail glass, featuring intricate etched floral and foliage designs on its bowl. The glass is transparent and colorless, showcasing a brilliant clarity. The bowl is wide and shallow, characteristic of a coupe glass, flaring outwards from a delicate stem. The etching prominently displays a continuous band of stylized flowers, what appear to be thistle-like blooms, and various leafy branches that completely encircle the upper half of the bowl. These etched details are matte and frosted in appearance, contrasting with the polished surface of the glass, suggesting careful acid-etching or wheel-engraving craftsmanship. The stem is slender and straight, connecting the bowl to a simple, round base. A notable feature of the stem is a knop or small decorative element just below where it joins the bowl, adding a subtle touch of elegance. The base is flat and circular, providing stability. Based on the design style and general craftsmanship, this glass likely dates from the early to mid-20th century, possibly the Art Deco or Mid-Century Modern period, as such intricate etched patterns were popular during those eras. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear captured in the image, indicating good to excellent vintage condition; any manufacturing marks are not discernible from the provided views. The detailed etching suggests a quality piece, likely produced by a reputable glassmaker.
