This is a handsome and unusual example of a piece of early Neil Wilkin studio glass, probably dating to his time in Bath and Frome during the 1980s and 1990s.
The goblet has a capacious, rounded bowl made from an opaque, pale pink glass. It has an applied dark burgundy red rim.
There is a thick, uneven discoid collar at the junction of the bowl and the elongated cylindrical stem. There is an incised mark at the junction of the stem and the plain, flat foot. This has a central rough pontil and is unmarked.
The glass has a slight ‘lean’ to it, and has some tool marks around the collar, which I believe would have rendered this piece a ‘seconds’.
It has a maximum height of 24.8cm, with a diameter across the rim of 10.4cm and across the foot of about 9.5cm.
It has a liquid capacity (to the brim) of 375ml.
It has an unwrapped weight of 490g.
It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
