Six miniature, footed shot glasses from the Meiji era. The lower body of each glass is faceted with eight sides. As shown in the photos, there are irregularities in the appearance, such as the bottom plates being irregularly circular, the stems being thick or thin, and the glass being colorless and transparent but with a slight yellow or blue (green) tint. These imperfections, on the contrary, give a sense of the handmade glass of the time. Photos 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12 show the overall view, the bottom (plate), and the rim of the glasses in sets of two. The six glasses are clean with almost no dirt or cloudiness from use, and there are no cracks. However, two of them have minor chips and scratches that are not very noticeable (photos 10 and 12). They are in good condition for antiques that are over 100 years old. The size (cm) and capacity of the six glasses do not vary much and are approximately as follows, but there are some differences in weight: Height 6, Diameter 2.9, Stem 1.8, Bottom diameter (width) 3.4 / Weight 19, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26g / Capacity 10ml (near the mouth) / Six miniature, footed shot glasses from the Meiji era with an eight-sided cut body. The irregularities in appearance evoke the handmade feel of the time. Two of the glasses have minor, inconspicuous chips and scratches, but they are clean and beautiful with almost no dirt or cloudiness, and are in good condition. What would be poured into a 10ml miniature footed glass? Liquor, sake, aperitifs... the exact use at the time is unknown, but a footed glass would provide a special feeling and brighten up the dining table.
