Edinburgh Crystal Star of Edinburgh Small Wine or Port Glass

This is a fine lead crystal stemware glass, identified by the distinctive 'Star of Edinburgh' pattern produced by the renowned Edinburgh Crystal Glass Company. The piece features a traditional U-shaped bowl characterized by intricate hand-cut detailing, including a band of deep diamond cross-hatching topped by elongated vertical wedge cuts which taper toward the rim. The stem is faceted with sharp geometric angles that transition smoothly into a rounded, radiating star-cut base, which is a hallmark of high-quality traditional British crystal. Physically, the glass exhibits high clarity and a brilliant refractive index, typical of mid-to-late 20th-century production. Its smaller scale suggests it was designed for port, sherry, or a light white wine. While maker's marks like an etched 'Edinburgh' signature on the base are common for this line, they are not immediately visible in this view. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or clouding (sickness) in the glass, and the edges of the cuts remain sharp, indicating minimal wear. The craftsmanship reflects the premium standards of Scottish glassmaking, blending functional durability with an elegant, light-catching aesthetic.
