This collection comprises an assortment of mid-20th-century glassware featuring a variety of decorative and functional forms. The lot includes a tall, flared vase with deep geometric cutting in a diamond and fan pattern, alongside a slender trumpet-shaped vase with a distinctive iridescent lustre finish. A large, bulbous clear glass vessel is present, suitable for use as a hurricane lamp chimney or rose bowl. The stemware includes a group of matching small glasses, likely for liqueur or sherry, which are presented on a rectangular cut-glass tray with a central starburst motif. Additional assorted wine and spirit glasses are included, featuring various traditional diamond and star cutting patterns. Serving pieces consist of a large centerpiece bowl with a scalloped rim and deep starburst cutting, and two lidded crystal preserve jars with faceted finials, one of which includes a small metal spoon. The manufacture across the collection shows a range of techniques, from hand-cut lead crystal with high refractive brilliance to pressed glass in traditional cut-glass styles. No manufacturer marks, etched signatures, or labels were identified on these items.
