Best Quality Libbey/Anderson Whiskey – SOLD |
This piece was most likely designed by William C. Anderson for the Libbey Glass Company. Both the stopper and the decanter are signed Libbey but the cutting is strikingly similar to other patterns that Anderson designed.
Some of the Anderson design characteristics featured on this decanter are a chain of clear button hobstars, triple miter cane, flat hobstars and the checking around the hobstars and the rest of the pattern. The pattern is actually very similar to the Celeste pattern attributed by the Anderson Study Group. The base is covered with a rayed star.
Frankly, there aren’t many whisky’s with this much intense cutting and the depth on the triple miter cane is astounding! The decanter measures 13 3/4″ tall and 3 1/2″ across the base. It is in perfect condition and free of any stain and deep scratching.
