Note:
This highly unusual Jacobite glass appears to be virtually unique and while the decoration is of standard pattern the fact it is enamelled rather engraved has not been recorded before. The only recorded enamel Jacobite glasses to date have been the rare portrait glasses of Prince Charles, see Woolley & Wallis English and European ceramics and glass, 7th October 2021 lot 1136.
