Body: <p>I accidentally broke a vintage whiskey glass that I got from a friend's father when he passed away. I've been looking for a replacement in a similar style, but haven't been able to find anything suitable. The bottom of the glass was cut in a particular way, similar to what's found in <a href="https://chairish-prod.freetls.fastly.net/image/product/sized/ff7d9f15-23f9-43ea-896e-9e3aa6f4b9f4/vintage-italian-crystal-lowballwhiskey-glasses-set-of-7-0283?aspect=fit&amp;width=1600&amp;height=1600" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this link</a>, though not quite the same. What I had was much more intricate, and there were four major protrusions from the bottom.</p>
  <p>Does anyone have an idea of what this bottom cut style is called? Most whiskey glasses I find when I search online just have a round bottom.</p>
  <p>EDIT: For some extra info, the etchings on the side of the glass I had were similar to those found in <a href="https://www.ebay.ca/itm/234522460714?hash=item369aa0c22a:g:xo4AAOSw3r1iY%7E1R&amp;amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4GshO219Y7eM1hPd%2B8eMGfUjG1s3NSdkwYn%2BVmoQDTXXGZ5OoA27MpCB%2B9oQ6qqkSkhJlPwBOYYAJk6HYb2FDoPRtuyCU5FniqlMcrIi0N4blihq7Cv%2BHbkQAbG%2BPWzqzEsCmHGOFF3h1z3fKevsVzgTuzvXkHXQsm%2B%2B4Qmf9XygYsZ%2FJ8QyxGZUnruTgL%2F3jwOwQmr35%2FHiqa25yT15iO%2FIaeEZ0Stui%2BZgegCQcskiqmMBRQgHNI1sEaBoxB9ILjQP5Q6gfa1o0zRbVYCgtuk5Ky7xlgubKi7tzBbcOFk4%7Ctkp%3ABFBMjqTU8rNh" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this ebay listing</a>.

Comments.Text: @Horsty thanks! Yeah I eventually learned that the pattern is called "pinwheel", so I was able to find a lot of those. However, finding that cut base is nearly impossible and I don't think there is any kind of standard terminology for that. One link calls it "cathedral style" but that's about it. Anyways yes, onto the thrift/antique stores!

  I accidentally broke a vintage whiskey glass that I got from a friend's father when he passed away. I've been looking for a replacement in a similar style, but haven't been able to find anything suitable. The bottom of the glass was cut in a particular way, similar to what's found in [this link](https://chairish-prod.freetls.fastly.net/image/product/sized/ff7d9f15-23f9-43ea-896e-9e3aa6f4b9f4/vintage-italian-crystal-lowballwhiskey-glasses-set-of-7-0283?aspect=fit&width=1600&height=1600), though not quite the same. What I had was much more intricate, and there were four major protrusions from the bottom.
  
  Does anyone have an idea of what this bottom cut style is called? Most whiskey glasses I find when I search online just have a round bottom.
