Beautiful, Heavy Cut Glass Pitcher – SOLD |
One of my favorite forms of pitchers is this bulbous shape which seems to be getting scarcer every day. This one is cut in an unknown, but very well done pattern. Some of the design elements are similar to Hawkes’ work but I think it is by another company.
This pattern is made up of large 16-point diamond-shaped hobstars. Surrounding the hobstars is strawberry diamond, crosshatching, and fans, which make up a very balance pattern. The cutting continues to the base of the pitcher and meet a beautiful, deep hobstar. The handle of the pitcher is triple notched and the lip and spout are fluted and notched.
The pitcher is near perfect condition with just a few fleabites on the base and in the pattern. It’s on a beautiful, heavy blank and measures 8 1/2″ tall and 6″wide. I’m passing along the savings on this one with an incredible price!
