THE GRAND TOUR

A COLLECTION OF OBJECTS PURCHASED BY TRAVELERS ABROAD

#6088. A glass bowl and cup. Possibly early, perhaps ancient. Each of the two pieces has a museum of collections #: the cup "C.G.1613" in red paint and the plate/bowl "C.G.1730" also in red paint. The bowl is a little shy of 9" across and it is about 2" tall; the cup is app. 2.75" across at the top and 2.5" tall. Condition: no cracks or edge losses; front and back, inside and outside there is a surface "sickness" to the glass creating a complex glaze consistent with age. The color of both of these pieces is pale green. Those who know will recognize if these two pieces are old or reproductions. Inquiries welcome.
