Antique Victorian Emerald Green Crystal Cut Glass

Cut to clear crystal glassware became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. This style involves overlaying a layer of colored glass over a clear crystal base, then cutting intricate patterns through the colored layer to reveal the clear crystal underneath. This technique creates a stunning contrast and allows for detailed designs that catch the light beautifully.

These glasses were often used for special occasions and formal dining, reflecting the elegance and sophistication of the time. Emerald green was a particularly favored color, symbolizing luxury and refinement. Makers like Waterford, Faberge, and other fine glassmakers produced exquisite examples of this type of glassware, which are now highly sought after by collectors.

This item is in excellent condition with no signs of wear. Absolutely stunning!
