Summary

Jersey Glass Company of George Dummer (1824–1862)
Made in Jersey City, New Jersey, United States

A champagne glass is a type of stemware designed specifically for serving champagne or other sparkling wines. It typically has a tall, narrow bowl that widens slightly at the top to allow the bubbles to rise and release their aroma. The stem of the glass is long and slender, allowing the drinker to hold the glass without warming the wine with their hands. Some champagne glasses also have a small, shallow indentation in the bottom of the bowl, known as a punt, which is believed to help enhance the flavour and aroma of the wine.
