Set of Ten Early 20th Century Machine Etched Lead Glass Small Tumblers c.1910

This is an unusual set of ten good-quality lead glass small tumblers dating to the early 20th century.

Each glass is approximately cylindrical, tapering in towards the thickened base. The latter is plain and unmarked.

The bowl is acid-etched by machine with a circumferential band of four wavy lines surmounting an undulating wavy line overlapping a band of arched scallops.

Each tumbler has a height of approximately 9.5cm, with a diameter across the rim of about 5.6cm and across the base of about 4.2cm.

Each glass has a liquid capacity (to the brim) of 150ml.

They have an unwrapped weight of 540g.

They are in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks. There are some notches at the rim, which are smooth (unlike chips) and likely due to the rim being cut and finished during manufacture. This is not damage but a manufacturing flaw.
