Paneled Glass Tumbler

Twenty colorless glass base, body and rim fragments from a glass tumbler, possibly consisting of more than one vessel. Many show pressed paneled elements, some with arches, typical of tumblers manufactured after 1830. There appears to be at least one flat base fragment supporting the interpretation that the original form lacked a stem.
