A large pair of early 19th century wine glasses or goblets with an engraved crest. The bowls are plain but for the crest, which was used by Anthony Keith-Falconer, 7th earl of Kintore (1794-1844), of a fox head over a scroll bearing the motto "Floreat Scientia" (let knowledge flourish). Kintore was a keen, and notoriously reckless, huntsman, "at his hunting box in Scotland, which he called "The Peat Stack,"on all the china, glass, and plate, was a fox's head engraved, with the motto 'Floreat Scientia,' and he had the same device on his travelling carriage"(Loder-Symonds, A History of the Old Berkshire Hunt from 1760 to 1904). The glasses are in excellent condition. (Circa 1830) Height 17.5cm (6.9 inches) Rim Diameter 15cm (5.9 inches) Foot Diameter 11cm (4.3 inches) Pair of Earl of Kintore Goblets
