Two glasses are represented in Jacqueline Béllanger's “use and prestige glass…”, one p.477 of the same type without engraved decoration, given for the first half of the 18th century (probably due to its absence of engraving), one second p.486 with an engraved conical cup with molded channels, given for the mid-century.
