Egg glass, made as fake

Height 15 cm.

There has been a long tradition of glassmakers making things after work and during breaks from the leftovers left in the glass furnace. These things are called fusk or slele and are often coarser in workmanship than ordinary production. Whether this glass was intended for drinking from or for use as an egg cup is unknown. It has a rough sand nail at the bottom and several blisters in the glass, which indicates that it is from before 1900.
