Beautiful and Large Vintage Glass Pitcher Vase With Hollow Blown Handle
Stunning vintage glass pitcher vase in light yellow graduating to orange color and diamond point pattern. The color is called Persimmon. This was made with a 4-part mold. 4-part molds were used up to the early 1900’s, rarely used after. Circa estimated to 1940.
This vintage glass pitcher vase was hand blown into mold with hand finished spout and applied free blown HOLLOW handle. The hollow handle suggests a very fine early maker. Northwood Glass produced a pattern exactly like this called Diamond Point, Westmoreland Glass called theirs English Hobnail (used as a generic name today), Cambridge Glass, Imperial Glass, New England Glass all produced English hobnail too. Actual maker unknown.
In very good++ condition. Bottom wear is heavy as it should be. Two small aged smoothed chiggers and one 1/8 inch stress mark (does not affect integrity of glass) beneath the daisy marked base. Pitcher must be turned upside-down to see it. The rest of the glass is in pristine condition. A few tiny bubbles in the glass are present and are expected in old pattern glass. The bubbles can’t be seen unless inspected closely.
Measures 7″ tall, 8.25″ from handle to spout and is 6.25″ wide. Can be used as a beverage pitcher or a floral vase.
