Description
A contemporary British lead crystal glass produced by Dartington Crystal. The piece is fashioned as a short stemmed vessel, potentially suitable for use as a dessert dish, champagne coupe, or large cocktail glass. The design features a wide, flared, and shallow circular bowl with a plain, polished rim, supported by a thick, waisted short stem and a wide, flat circular foot. The crystal is clear and undecorated, showcasing the minimalist aesthetic associated with the Devon-based manufacturer. The item is accompanied by its original grey and patterned cardboard presentation box. The box features a central grey band with a printed white label reading DARTINGTON CRYSTAL. To the right of this, smaller printed text reads THE DIFFERENCE IS CRYSTAL CLEAR followed by DARTINGTON CRYSTAL LIMITED TORRINGTON, DEVON, ENGLAND. The rest of the box is decorated with a repeating D motif pattern in dark grey.
