Entirely mouth-blown, these elegant glasses are the Emma model and date from the 1930s to 1940s. Each features a rounded bowl raised on a  baluster stem and circular foot, finely engraved with delicate spiral friezes interspersed with floral motifs that create a graceful decorative band around the glass. The set remains in very good condition with light wear consistent with age and use. One glass has a small chip to the foot, and there are a few minor manufacturing irregularities and signs of use typical of hand-blown glass of this period.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSmall stemmed glasses such as these were a staple of French entertaining during the first half of the 20th century, used for serving cordials, fruit brandies, anisette, and other after-dinner liqueurs. The refined engraved decoration and hand-blown craftsmanship reflect the quality for which the Verrerie de Vierzon was known.\nWhether displayed on a bar cart, paired with crystal decanters, or brought out for festive gatherings, this complete set lends a timeless sense of occasion and a subtle sparkle to the table. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eEach measures approx. 5\" high x 2¼\" diameter    \u003cbr\u003eEach measures approx. 13cm high x 6cm diameter  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53830375178578,"sku":"24798","price":581.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC07661_831b7450-d566-4b04-932e-be0405d5b3c3.jpg?v=1782309382","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/set-of-9-french-hand-blown-engraved-liqueur-glasses-1930s-1940s-5","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
