Rummer c. 1800 - 1820

This anonymous "Rummer" (c. 1800–1820) is a stemmed drinking glass with a bowl etched with a complex geometric pattern. These types of drinking glasses were a popular decorative and functional object in the early 19th century, and they remain a symbol of the craftsmanship and elegance of that era. This example is on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
