A fine Georgian wine glass with a multiple-spiral opaque twist (MSOT) stem below an ogee bowl. The stem has a flattened shoulder knop and a basal knop. This knop configuration, combined with an uncommon twist type, makes this glass quite unusual. Conical foot with a rough, snapped pontil. Good color, tooling marks, and striations.

The condition is excellent, with no chips, cracks, hazing, or restoration. Any streaks, spots, or other disturbances in the photos are due to dust or light reflections or shadows, and are not present in the glass. The height of this fine example is 6 1/2", with a bowl diameter of 1 7/8" and a foot diameter of 2 1/2".
