The Wakefield Goblets | Air Twist Wine Goblet

The Air Twist Wine Goblet is a cross-cultural combination of Venetian and English glassblowing techniques. The English air twist stem was developed in Georgian England in the mid-18th century, and features a helix of trapped air through the length of the stem. The stem sits upon a traditional Venetian-style optic molded knop, and supports a tall, thin, optic-molded cup, also in the Venetian style. The piece features a traditional blown foot with a turned under edge. This goblet was created on April 23, 2024. It measures 9.75"h x 3.25"d. It is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a custom-fitted handmade sapele wood box engraved with the artist’s signature.
