Water Goblet

Boston & Sandwich Glass Company

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Clear glass goblet with a long stem and a wide bowl that tapers inward. The bowl features an etched design consisting of a wreath surrounding a capital letter "K". The wreath is made of what appears to be oak leaves or similar foliage. Above the wreath design, an etched band encircles the top of the bowl, featuring scrolling floral patterns. The goblet sits on a flat surface against a plain white background.
