Whimsical Miniature Pitcher Hoare? – SOLD

This is one of the nicest cut glass miniatures I’ve seen. This is a  great looking pitcher with bulging neck and meticulous cutting. I believe because of the pattern and handle treatment, this is a piece of Hoare.

Three types of vesicas adorn on the outside of this pitcher. One features crosscutting, filled with crosshatching. Another vesica is filled with two types of notched prism and the final one is filled with cane cutting. Sitting between each vesica is a triangular, triple mitered button. The neck of this piece is gorgeous – it bulges and is adorned with punties. The lip and edges are fluted and the handle is fluted and notched. The base is finished with a rayed star. The depth with which this miniature is cut is impressively deep and skillful.

The pitcher is in excellent condition with just a minor amount of roughness in the cutting. It measures 3 3/4″ tall and 3 1/2″ wide.
