Lovely Libbey Sultana Water Set |
This pitcher and tumblers are both cut in Libbey’s Sultana pattern. All five pieces are signed with the Libbey sabre mark. Libbey made the Sultana pattern considerably more elaborate on this pitcher adding several additional motifs.
Two large hobstars adorn the side of the pitcher. Strawberry-diamond cutting falls between each of these large hobstars and run into an unusual split crosshatched motif. This split crosshatching intersects with two flat hobstars. The rim of the pitcher is cut with the elaborate fans that the Sultana pattern is so well known for. The handle of the pitcher is triple notched and the base is finished with a rayed star. The tumblers also include a rayed star on the base.
The pitcher is in nearly perfect condition with one tiny flake on the spout. It measures 8 3/4″ tall and 5″ wide. Two of the tumblers are in mint condition. One of the others has a tiny nick at the rim and the other has a professionally touched up rim. Each tumbler measures 3 3/4″ tall and 3″ wide. Complete water sets are hard to come by and this one is offered at a bargain price for your consideration.
