This 1791 goblet, crafted by the New Bremen Glass Manufactory, showcases an engraved coat of arms. The intricate design features a central ship, flanked by heraldic lions and birds, and an inscription. The glass is mounted on a wooden base. This piece is a prime example of American glassmaking during the late 18th century and represents a significant part of American decorative art. The engraved details and the choice of a heraldic motif reflect the style of the period, and it's a fascinating piece of glassware history.
