The fully ribbed round funnel bowl on this glass elevates it above the ordinary into an elegant and striking wine glass.

There has been a slight polish to a small section of the foot, probably to remove a nick, as it has not reduced the foot size at all.

5 1/4" tall, 2 1/8" bowl diameter, 2 1/2" foot diameter.

A trapped tear extends the entire length of the stem...
