A GEORGIAN CUT GLASS WATER JUG

REF: FA1510

A magnificent Georgian period cut glass water jug of striking form and clarity, finely executed in the classic style of the early 19th century. The broad body is richly adorned with bold geometric cutting, including diamond facets, fluted panels, and a radiant star burst medallion that catches and scatters the light with dazzling precision.

The sweeping lip, gracefully notched for pouring, balances perfectly against the elegantly arched handle, which is delicately reeded to the touch, a testament to both artistry and utility. The interplay of curved and angular surfaces creates a rhythmic harmony, imbuing this practical vessel with sculptural refinement.

Both robust and refined, this jug embodies the confident elegance of the Georgian table, where form and brilliance united in service of convivial splendour.
