As the name implies, a jelly glass is a type of small drinking style glass that was used for serving jelly or other desserts during the Georgian era, which lasted from the early 18th century to the early 19th century. The glass is typically small and has a delicate, elegant design, often with a short stem and a wide, shallow bowl. Georgian jelly glasses were often made in sets of six or more, and were used for serving individual portions of jelly or other desserts. They were often decorated with cutting or engraving, and could be plain or coloured. Some jelly glasses were also made with other decorative features such as air-twist stems, opaque twists, or diamond-point engraving.
