Smooth Wellington champagne flute
Height 16.5 cm.
Wellington appears in Holmegaard's catalogue as early as 1853 and was offered from 1867 as a full glass series with 12 sizes. The glass was manufactured until the mid-1920s. Wellington is available in this cut version, which is half-faceted, and a smooth version. Both have a thick base and a knob on the stem.
This glass has a polished sand nail, which indicates that it is from before 1880.
The glass has a slight matte finish which is difficult to show in pictures.
