Svend Jensen Stemware Princ order Pattern Water Goblets Set of 6

This set of 6 crystal water goblets highlights the elegant simplicity of Scandinavian mid-century modern design. The glasses are in the Prince pattern, designed by Svend Jensen. The stem is blown into a tall column that creates a clean line, supporting the gossamer arc of the bowl. The tall, wide shape of the bowls gives a feel of substance and weight, despite the fact these are actually relatively light due to the delicacy of the glass. The glasses are impeccably produced, the proportions are beautiful, and the crystal has nice clarity with almost no bubbles. Even the feet were blown, so they are quite thin and have an elegant domed profile that adds to the architectural feel of design. The rims were cut flat, a detail that gives a nice finishing touch. The crystal rings beautifully when tapped.

The glasses are 8/1/4” tall and 3 ¼ wide. order They are in very good condition with no cracks. One of the glasses has a tiny rough patch on the top of the rim, which is almost invisible, I can only feel it running my finger over it. Otherwise, there is no damage that I can find, though there is normal wear from use. Two of the glasses may be from a somewhat more recent production run, the glass in these is not quite as thin and the rim is not quite as finely finished, though this may simply be variance from being blown. Truly a beautiful set with a lot of presence.
