This is a high-quality cut lead crystal flower vase from the ‘Glandore’ suite by Waterford Crystal.
The vase is waisted in the centre, widening out towards the base. The upper part of the body is cut with a panel of relief diamonds that diminish in size as the vase tapers in. This panel is bordered above and below by a circumferential mitre cut. The waisted portion of the vase is cut with a stylised laurel wreath pattern; this surmounts a further circumferential mitre cut and a band of relief diamonds that increase in size as they approach the base. The latter is star cut in the centre and marked towards the edge with the word ‘WATERFORD’.
It has a height of approximately 15.3cm, with a diameter across the rim of about 10.6cm and across the base of about 8.9cm.
It has an unwrapped weight of 1030g.
It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks, although there are a few wear and tear scratches to the interior and base that are commensurate with age.
