EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite engraved Jacobite airtwist drinking glass, dating back to 1760, showcases the intricate craftsmanship and historical significance of Scottish glassmaking during the Jacobite era. The bell bowl of the glass is adorned with an open thistle and two buds, symbolizing the national flower of Scotland and the buds representing the hope for the Jacobite cause. A single moth is also engraved, believed to be a reference to the Jacobite motto "Aut sanguis aut mors," which translates to "Either blood or death." The stem of the glass is a double-knopped mufti-spiral airtwist design, adding an elegant and intricate touch to the piece. The conical foot provides a stable base, allowing for a comfortable grip and steady pour. The airtwist design was a popular choice during the Jacobite period, as it allowed for a more controlled pour and reduced the amount of foam created during the process. The engraving on this glass is a testament to the artistic talent and historical significance of the Jacobite era in Scotland. The use of the thistle and the Jacobite motto highlights the strong national pride and political sentiments of the time. This engraved Jacobite airtwist drinking glass is not only a beautiful piece of historical glassware but also a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions of Scotland during the Jacobite period.
