Description
Blenko 1960’s Art Glass Pitcher in Muted Plum by Meyers.
This beautiful free-blown art glass pitcher was designed by Joel Meyers of Blenko Art Glass, WV, USA in 1965. The form appeared in Blenko catalogs through 1967. Produced for only two years.
It’s very good condition. The bulge of the pitcher 3 small scratches on one side which are invisible to the camera and can’t be seen unless inspected closely. It has is a medium-weight ring of bottom-wear around the inverted pontil mark in the center. Bottom wear is expected with vintage glass not considered damage.
Retro modern elegance at its finest. Full-size pitcher with a high loop applied handle. The color is what can only be described as a ‘muted plum’. In most lighting circumstances the dull purple clearly stands out, and in other lighting it appears almost brown. The glass recipes were mixed by hand back then so the shades of Blenko colors often varied.
Full-size pitcher measures 7.25″ at tallest, 9″ at widest, widest girth of 22″ around. Weighs 3 lbs. Holds 34 ounces. Lovely on the table or bar with beverages or flowers.
