A superb English Jacobite Glass circa 1740-1750, being a very bold glass engraved with a Rose, an open and closed Bud, a Thistle and an Oak Leaf with Acorn, presumably representing the anticipated 2^nd restoration of the Stuart monarchy.  In 1710, the oak leaf was a Tory emblem as well as an emblem of the Stuart clan.  After the death of Queen Anne, the oak leaf was viewed as an offense to the Hanoverians.  The engraving is attributable to engraver “C” in Seddon’s book:  ‘The Jacobites and their Drinking Glasses’. 18cm high.  SOLD

A rare English Jacobite glass circa 1740-1750, with a very scarce hollow stem.
