This is a pair of high-quality lead crystal sherry glasses from the ‘Sharon’ suite designed by Frank Thrower for Dartington Crystal.
The conical bowl merges imperceptibly with the tapering stem. The latter contains an enclosed air bubble. The foot is discoid and marked in the centre with the Dartington ‘D’ logo. In addition, each glass bears the original gold sticker, which reads ‘DARTINGTON ENGLAND 24% LEAD CRYSTAL’. This gold sticker is indicative of ‘First’ quality.
The glasses also come in their original Dartington box.
Each glass has a height of approximately 16.4cm, with a diameter across the rim of about 6.2cm and across the foot of about the same.
Each glass has a liquid capacity of 100ml.
They have an unwrapped weight (including the box) of about 360g.
They are in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
