Description / Expertise
Attractive George III sterling silver Scottish wine goblet of good weight.
The vase shaped body is mainly plain and stands on a circular foot with applied reeded rim and graceful, curved, stem. The top of the bowl has a band of beautifully engraved bright-cut decoration of stylised bunches of grapes and vine leaves on a matted ground. This is bordered above and below by a double band of wriggle pattern bright-cut engraving which is touching a single band of bright-cut dot engraving. The foot is engraved with a foliate band of bright-cut decoration as well as single bands of dot engraving and a more densely decorated wriggle pattern band. The full set of hallmarks are stamped underneath the foot and are crisp and clear.
Single goblets are highly collectible and make a charming mix when used for drinking when a group of people are together. The bright-cut decoration on this goblet adds a great deal to its value. This goblet would also be very useful filled with bon-bons and would make a very attractive vase, providing the water was changed often.
