Roemer with four rows of raspberry prunts

The roemer became fashionable during the course of the 16th century. It had an ovoid bowl reminiscent of our current wine glasses. The stem is decorated with raspberry-shaped prunts. It is not certain where this glass was made. Most green glass was imported from Germany, but a few centres producing green glass emerged in the Netherlands during the 16th century.
