A Splendid Antique Victorian Etched Glass Comport / Tazza. The surface is richly decorated with finely etched grape clusters, curling vines, and wide vine leaves, rendered with delicate detail that reflects the high standards of Victorian glassmaking. The rim features a notched or sawtooth-style finish, which adds subtle sparkle and texture, catching the light beautifully. The slender stem gently flares into a wide, stable foot, making the piece well-balanced while maintaining its delicate profile. The underside of the foot is finished with a striking 16-point starburst cut, typical of finer Victorian glassware and a mark of quality.
* The wide dish form is ideal for presenting fruit, desserts, or small cakes. The shallow profile is not only graceful but also highly functional as a centrepiece.
Measurements:
Height: 8" (approx. 20cm)
Diameter across top: 10" (approx. 25cm)
Total weight: 1300g
In very good antique condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. The etched pattern remains crisp, with excellent clarity and no fogging or staining.
