El Rancho 1970’s Bryce Glass Large Beverage Pitcher

Large Bryce Glass El Ranco beverage pitcher. Hand-formed mid-century art glass pitcher in forest green with ice lip. This is a stunning beverage pitcher. In the late 1950’s to early 1960’s, smoked colors were very popular. What was known as “Swedish Modern Glass” was the rage. The Scandinavian makers introduced fabulous colors and organic styling, which was imitated by other countries. The Scandinavians also produced many styles imitating ice, wood and other organic surfaces, and other makers of the era followed suit. In America, makers such as Duncan Miller, Tiffin, Bryce (to name a few) made Crinkle, Ockner, El Mexicana and El Rancho, etc. The pattern on this pitcher matches El Rancho by Bryce Bros. Glass Co., pre 1967.

The color is awesome. It is a solid forest green, but the color darkens at thicker areas of the glass (handle, base). This large pitcher was hand-blown from mold with (no seam lines) hand-tooled spout and applied hand-blown handle.

Measures 9.5″ tall, 7.5″ from spout to handle. Weighs 3 lbs. In excellent condition.
