Pair of cut glass crystal wine rinsers, circa 1825 from England(possibly Ireland). The wine rinser was used on the formal table for washing wine glasses between uses or meal courses. When a new wine was bought to the table, the glasses would be placed in the rinser to flush the previous wine from the glass. The small spouts on either side are meant to support an upside down wine glass. There are small chip on bottom of each rinser.
