Victorian-era etched glass custard cups, likely dating from the mid-to-late 19th century (c. 1860-1880).
Design: These clear glass cups feature a footed base and an applied handle. They are decorated with an etched interlocking circular or "spiral" pattern around the bowl.
Material: They are typically hand-blown flint glass, which often exhibits production irregularities or small inclusions characteristic of antique glassware.
Purpose: Originally, these were designed for serving individual portions of custard, fruit fools, or chocolate mousses.
Modern Versatility: Today, collectors also use them for serving liqueurs, ice wines, or small modern desserts.
Provenance: While many are unbranded, some have been associated with manufacturers like Northwood or identified as Woodstock glass South Africa
