Beaker glass Nubb glass

The 18th century beaker-shaped drinking glasses are very rare. Occasionally, you can see a specimen at quality auctions in Stockholm. A few glasses are also preserved in Swedish museum collections.

The glasses are similar in shape to silver goblets from the same period. They have the same trumpet shape, they have the same folded mouth rim and the clearly marked heel is also similar to the foot of the silver goblets. There is no mistaking that beaker glasses are a more everyday version of silver goblets, even though glass goblets, like porcelain plates, were already a great luxury in the 18th century. What is surprising, however, is that so few beaker glasses have survived, compared with, for example, wine glasses on feet. Perhaps this is because glass goblets were considered simpler than glasses on feet and were used more frequently, which meant they broke more often.

Our beakers are hand-blown and therefore as individual as the originals. The glass mass varies with uneven thickness, streaks, stripes and sometimes blisters. The dot mark under the heel shows where the glassblower’s pipe was located. The folded rim is also a typical 18th-century detail.

Gysinge beakers are available in three sizes. A large one for beer or juice. A medium size for wine, water or milk. And a small nubb glass.

All three glasses are suitable as vases. The first tussilion in the tassel glass, a bunch of white or blue anemones in the wine glass, or a bouquet of summer flowers in the beer glass.

Flowerpot

Hand-turned flowerpots and saucers of the traditional variety. Flowerpot production became an industry and mass production in Sweden around the turn of the century 1900. Before then, all pots were made by hand, as were the saucers. The profession was called pottery. Typical of handmade pots is that you can see the potter’s hands in the ware. The imprints from the hand-turning process create low ridges on the surface and show through on the outside. A hand-turned pot is therefore not as smooth as a machine pot, it is more personal and has more life and variety. A detail that also reveals the real craftsmanship is the soft, rounded rim at the top. It can certainly be made by machine, but it will never be as soft and individual as on a hand-turned pot.

Lion pot small

Before flowerpot production became an industry in Sweden around the turn of the century 1900, there were a number of potters who made flowerpots, among other things. Typical of their handmade pots is that you can see the imprints of the potter’s hands in the ware. The hand-turning process produces low ridges on the surface that are visible both inside and out.

A hand-turned pot is not as rigid as a machine pot, it is more personal and has more life and variety. A detail that also reveals the real craftsmanship is the soft, rounded edge at the top. It can certainly be made by machine, but it will never be as soft and individual as on a hand-turned pot.

Gysinge’s small lion pots also have two lion mascots on the chest, a common decoration in the early 19th century.
