Details:
The Maker: Attributed to Lausitzer Glas (East Germany). This specific 7.5" mold with the zipper-cut stem was a staple of German export crystal in the 1970s and 80s, often sold by retailers like Sears or Beyer.
The Design: Features the classic "Pinwheel" (Schleuderstern) motif, a dynamic swirling star pattern flanked by fan cuts.
The Stem: Distinctive "Zipper" or Serrated stem. Unlike the smooth faceted stems of Nachtmann, this stem has horizontal notches cut into the ridges for extra grip and sparkle.
The Form: Traditional 7.5" Hock shape, slightly shorter and stouter than its 8.25" Bavarian counterparts.
Measurements:
Height: 7.5 inches
Rim Diameter: 2.5 inches
Base Diameter: 3 inches
