Description
This is an IKEA Frasera goblet featuring a classic pressed design with a decorative laurel leaf wreath band around the top and a horizontally ribbed or 'ringed' base. It has a short, sturdy foot and is made of clear, thick glass. Ideal for water, iced tea, or specialty cocktails. Its vintage-inspired aesthetic makes it popular for farmhouse or traditional decor styles.
Key Features
Discontinued IKEA pattern; 'shabby chic' or vintage aesthetic; heavy and durable feel; often sought after by those looking to replace broken pieces in an existing set.
Authenticity Indicators
Typically unmarked on the glass itself. Features a distinct transition between the wreath and the rings that is characteristic of the IKEA Frasera production method. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Look for 'flea bites' (tiny chips) around the rim or base. Check for cloudiness (etching) from dishwasher use, which is permanent and significantly lowers value.

Where to Sell
eBay or Etsy. These platforms are best for people searching for specific discontinued glassware patterns by name.
Selling Tips
