Bashful Nude Stem Glass Cocktail Set of Two
Set of two well-made nude stemmed cocktail or champagne goblets. The frosted solid glass ‘bashful’ nude is covering most of her personal parts with her hands and hair. She is unable to cover her cute butt. The bowl is made of fine royal blue crystal.
Maker uncertain. First thought was Cambridge Glass, a maker of the past famous for their nude stemware. They made a ‘bashful’ nude, but it does not match this one. Imperial Glass reproduced Cambridge nude stemware, but again we cannot find a match. This nude stands straight upright, Cambridge’s bashful nude is slightly leaned over in an attempt to cover up. Cambridge’s nude crosses her arms, this nude uses each hand in a different area. Bayel is another known maker of nude stems, but these do not match any we’ve seen by Bayel.
Beautiful stemware, made by a fine glassmaker we’re sure. The detail on the frosted stem is very good. She’s wearing bracelets. The royal blue glass bowls have polished, heat finished rims. The clear glass foot and the bowl were blown into mold an applied to the molded stem. The clear glass reflects green under blacklight indicating old age. There is no damage.
Full size. They stand 6″ tall with a 3″ wide bowl, on a 3″ wide foot. Great for champagne or cocktails.
