Pair of Champagne Coupes in Clear Glass with Engraved Decoration – France (probably), c. 1950

Pair of champagne coupes in clear glass, featuring a delicate engraved decoration with geometric and ribbon motifs.

The wide, low bowl is encircled by a frieze of interlaced oval motifs, linked by small bow-shaped elements. Finely executed, the decoration lends a refined graphic quality to the pieces while preserving the clarity and transparency of the glass.

The coupes rest on slender straight stems and slightly domed circular feet. The base of each stem is accented with several moulded rings, a detail that further enhances their elegant silhouette.

Measuring 10.5 cm in height and 8 cm in diameter, they are well-proportioned tableware pieces. They can be used for champagne, cocktails or digestifs, and their open shape also lends itself to the elegant presentation of certain whiskies.

The manufacturer has not been identified with certainty. The form and decoration suggest a European, possibly French, production from the mid-20th century. No specific attribution is made in the absence of a maker’s mark or supporting documentation.
