Fantastic Pitkin and Brooks Gloria Cream & Sugar b- SOLD

This is a fantastic pair of cream and sugar by Pitkin and Brooks in their meticulous Gloria pattern. The Gloria pattern is one of P&B’s best designs and one of the most expensive in the catalog.

Deep, circular channels are cut around a cluster of hobstars. This cluster surrounds an internal 5-mitered hobstar in the center – a technique only used on the highest quality of pieces. There a staggering amount of motifs on these pieces including an unsual framed triangular hobstar, extremely tight crosshatching holding together hobstar-filled vesicas, and the tiniest Russian and cane cutting cut right up to the edge of each.

These ovoid cream and sugars are rare, but ones cut this well are increasingly harder to find. They measures approximately 4 1/2″ tall and 4 1/2″ long. They’re in exceptional, perfect condition.
