Beautiful William C. Anderson Carafe in the Anne Pattern SOLD |
This extremely high-quality carafe, cut in American Cut Glass Company’s Anne pattern is one of the most well cut carafes one can find. The pattern was designed by the ever-popular cut glass prodigy, William C. Anderson. Many of the motifs employed in the Anne pattern were his top choices in his highest quality designs.
The Anne pattern situates itself perfectly on this bulbous carafe. Vesicas featuring 3 clear button hobstars are finished off on either end with deeply cut notching. Each of these vesicas is surrounded by feathered cutting which narrowly makes contact with the next vesica’s feathered cutting. Atop the feather cutting is a smaller hobstar. The base is finished with a 5-sided split point hobstar featuring 20 points. Crosshatching boarders all five sides and provides the base for the feather cutting. The neck is fluted and notched.
The carafe is in perfect condition with just a few tiny fleabites. The blank (which I believe is made by Libbey) is vibrant and displays this high-quality pattern perfectly. The carafe measures 8 1/4″ tall and 6 1/4″ wide. This is an unusual opportunity to own a piece in this pattern at a bargain price!
