AN IRISH WILLIAMITE / ANTI JACOBITE WINE GLASS 18TH CENTURY GLASS, LATER ENGRAVED unsigned but likely by Franz Tieze, the tapered bowl with portrait of the King William on horse back inscribed 'THE GLORIOUS MEMORY OF KING WILLIAM III', the reverse with 'BOYNE 1ST JULY 1690' over 'HLStG', on a plain swelling stem between reeded knops on a domed circular foot with folded rim (15.9cm high) Footnote: Note: The initials 'HLStG' have previously been attributed to Henry Lucas St George (1781-1872), clergyman for Dromore in West Tyrone, Ireland. Reverend St George was a Grand Chaplain in the Orange Order. A large Protestant fraternal order in Northern Ireland in tribute to the Protestant King William III and his defeat over the Catholic King James II in the 17th century Williamite–Jacobite Wars. Franz Tieze is known to have supplied glasses to the Orange Order which seems to tie this attribution firmly to the Reverend St. George.
