A PAIR OF PILLAR CUT REGENCY CLARET JUGS
REF: FA1475
A handsome pair of Regency period claret jugs, finely executed with a combination of vertical pillar and horizontal step cutting. The bodies rise from flat, star-cut bases, their clean, architectural lines balanced by elegantly curved handles and scalloped pouring lips. Each jug is completed with a domed, pillar cut stopper that mirrors the body's design, creating perfect symmetry and cohesion.
The craftsmanship reflects the refined elegance and precision cutting typical of early 19th-century English glass, when clarity, form, and proportion were paramount. A superb example of Neoclassical taste, these jugs would have graced the Regency dining table with understated luxury.
