Wine Glass Goblets FRITZ HECKERT 6 Antique Bohemian 1895 Gilded Enamel (3774)
Antique set of 6 cut enameled and gilded wine glass goblets. Made by Fritz Heckert in Bohemia (now Czech Republic) 1895. Each glass is 7 3/4 inches tall. Curved, round base with engraved and gilded and blue enamelled simple patterns.
The stem is in the old German drinking glass tradition with knops and applied prunkts in the form of flowers. Concentric ridged rings in graduated sizes and inverted cones make the clear necks fascinating in themselves and the complex form results in a perpetual play of light on the glass. The bowls of the goblets are outstanding examples of classic Fritz Heckert glass-making technique, combining staining, cut glass, enamel, gilding and wonderful design.
Heart pattern with tiny flowers. Colours are yellow and green against a red ground with blue borders on top and bottom and a white enamel pattern going around the circumference. The whole is very richly gilded. Like most Bohemian glass, there are no factory marks, but there is no doubt that these glasses are from the Fritz Heckert factory (guarranteed). One glass has a minute spot on the underneath rim, shown highly magnified in the'photos, merely to be sticklers for detail, but in fact less than negligible and original to the manufacture.Otherwise, no chips/cracks/wear/loss/restoration of any sort.
