Large Oreste red wine glass

Height 17.2 cm.

Oreste is originally a Belgian imported glass from Val Saint Lambert. Holmegaard entered into the first import agreement with this glassworks in 1871 for 34 glass services and produced a number of these in the period 1910-1930. Today it is not possible to distinguish the Danish glass from the imported glass. Oreste has been sold in Denmark from 1915 and is discontinued in 1962. The glass is made of crystal glass and has a fine sound.
