Wine Glass

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Wine Glass by Steuben Crystal features a clear glass goblet with a wide mouth and a narrow, decorative rim. The bowl of the glass is adorned with a diamond and floral cut pattern. A short, narrow stem connects the bowl to a circular base. The glass is positioned on a plain gray background, casting a subtle shadow to the right. The stem has a teardrop-shaped decoration at its juncture with the base.
