    Hello friends! I've got a cordial glass that's been driving me nuts trying to ID. It's a very nice little piece - stands about 4 5/8" high. top diameter 2 1/4" and bottom diameter 2". I think it may be a combination of cut and pressed but I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Don,
    It is a little hard to read the pattern since it is being reflected from the back. Is there a way you could put a dark piece of paper or fabric inside the glass so the pattern will show better?

    Just picking a very small nit. A cordial glass holds between 3/4 oz and 1 1/4 oz, a wine glass between 2 and 3 1/2 oz. I suspect yours is a wine.

    Does it have a polished pontil, or a completely polished base?
    Does it have a nice ring when tapped?

    Base is fully polished but not flat - there is an indent where it meets the stem. It does ring a little but not like a fine crystal.
