A wine glass of possible Jacobite significance c.1760-70, the rounded bowl engraved with a bee alighting on a large sunflower, raised on a plain stem and conical foot, 16.3cm.

A rare Jacobite wine glass c.1760-80, the round funnel bowl enamelled with a polychrome portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart, raised on a double series opaque twist stem, 15.3cm.
