I have a set of 6 glasses and a 61/4" in length, 9 " round. I really have no Idea what it is. I bought it in a box of stuff at an auction about 5 years ago. Any help on identificntion would be helpful.
Thanks debbieg
These glasses are either legitimately ancient/Medieval or they are reproductions or fakes. Email photos to Artemis gallery or Medusa Gallery; to my knowledge they are the only (or few) reputable antiquities dealers in North America (are we allowed to suggest specialist dealers? If not, please let me know so I don't do it again).
The spiral pitcher looks Roman, 2nd-4th century, while the bottles with the globule appliqués are likely Islamic. I hope for your sake that you have some originals on your hands. They wouldn't be particularly rare or valuable, but if you have nine, they might add up to something nice.
